Three Primary Six pupils are selected as Junior Road Safety Officers each year to lead the school on Road Safety. This year our JRSOs are Lyall, Essie and Anna. They are supported by Mr Hutchison and Miss Ferguson as members of our Pupil ECO Group.
 What is a JRSO?
JRSO stands for Junior Road Safety Officer.
