Garda Safety Visit
Garda Safety Visit
Our 2nd Class had a visit by Community Garda Liam Ryan on the 13th of December last. Garda Ryan spoke about road safety and how the class can play an important part in promoting road safety when; walking on roads and footpaths, cycling, or in vehicles.
He answered questions about the Garda kit and spoke about his daily duties. The children got a tour of the Garda van too.
The class learned about all the items carried by Garda Ryan on a daily basis such as pepper spray, the Garda vest, the baton, and handcuffs.
Thank you Garda Ryan for your very enjoyable visit.
