Traffic Safety

Let’s work together to keep our kids safe!

Some of us walk, some of us cycle, some of us drive, but we all head in the same direction. Trimble Street can be very busy, and it’s up to each of us to do our part and keep our children safe. Here are some helpful tips to promote safety and play a part in keeping everyone safe:
 

If you drive:

Please go slowly and stay alert for kids crossing at all times.

Consider parking in any of the daycare slots half a block away from NRP. This can reduce congestion in the parking lot.

Don’t idle: keep the air fresh and clear and go easy on the planet, too.

Respect the rules: please park in designated spots only.

Please slow down near all crosswalks. Small kids are moving about and are not easily seen. 


If you cycle:

Obey all traffic laws.

Go slow and stay alert in school zones.

Wear brightly coloured clothing to stand out.

Add lights so you are visible to cars.


If you walk:

Only cross at designated crosswalks.

Wear brightly coloured clothes to stay visible.

Stay on the sidewalks unless crossing the street.

Be aware of cars at all times.

Hold the hands of small children.

Thanks to everyone for helping keep our community safe.

Crossing Guards

Crossing Guard Support – We Need Your Help!
 

We’re currently looking for volunteers to help keep our kids safe at two nearby crosswalks:
• Trimble & 5th
• Trimble & 6th
 

Each shift is just 25 minutes (morning or afternoon), but it makes a huge difference in creating a safer, calmer start and end to the school day. It’s also a lovely way to connect with the school community and see familiar faces. There is an option to shift share with another parent if a weekly commitment is too much. 

 

Training will be provided! If you’re able to help, even occasionally—we’d be so grateful!
