TfL Visit Year 6

September 13, 2013
Transport for London visited our school today. Year 6 children participated in an enjoyable educational workshop that raised awareness of how to travel safely and responsibly on public transport. The memorable presentation included videos, role play and a lively question and answer session. William from TfL's Safety and Citizenship team also highlighted the benefits of getting a Zip Oyster photocard. Children can apply for an Oyster card one month before their 11th birthday. With an 11-15 Zip Oyster card, bus and tram travel in London is free. Visit the TfL website for more information.
