I have contacted Wigan Council (transport unit) regarding the inconsistency of crossing patrols on Highfield Grange. In the meantime, please take extra care on the crossings; I have reiterated this to the children in assembly.
-
Similarly, please encourage children to wear helmets when cycling to school, no matter the age. I am really impressed with the Y6s, who are great role models in doing this.
