Student Feedback
The Little Blue Dinosaur aims to ensure that students are fully engaged in our road safety education by encouraging them to explain which roadway behaviours they will actively change as a result of our school presentation.
I used to think: I didn’t need to hold my mum’s hand because the cars could see me.

I used to think: when you were on familiar roads you didn’t need to be as careful.
Now I know: that even on familiar roads unexpected, different things can happen.

I used to think: holiday roads were the same as home roads.
Now I know: that they are not and I need to pay more attention on holidays and at home.

I used to think: that road safety was very important
Now I know: that road safety is very important and you have to hold a parent’s hand and press the button to cross at the traffic lights. Don’t ride a bike on the road.

I used to think: you were allowed to walk on the road and not hold a parent’s hand but be very careful.
Now I know: that you have to only cross the road at a pedestrian crossing and you always have to hold a hand.

I used to think: road safety was important and that people could see me on the road.
