A magician called Olly Day came and talked to Classes 2 and 3 about road safety and how to cross the road with care. He showed us the dangers of crossing from between parked cars and about being careful in car parks where cars reverse.
We did a magic trick to help us remember to stop, look and listen.
Olly explained how fluorescent strips can help us to be safe in the dark.
He told us never to play on the road and to wear colours like yellow which help you to be seen in the dark. Reflectors also work really well.
You must be safe when you cycle and wear your cycle helmet, which protects you if you fall off your bike. Olly showed us a photo of an 11 year old boy who hit his head on the road. His Dad took the photo and asked Olly to show as many children as possible to help them remember to wear a helmet.
It's also really important to wear seat belts - and it's the law!
10 children a week are hurt on the roads in Norfolk, so be careful and look after yourself!
