Over the past week there have been a number of reports of children being followed or approached by strangers. Thankfully, due to their alertness, no harm has come to anyone. However, this is a reminder to everyone to take time this weekend to speak to your children about the dangers on our streets as they go to and from school or play outside. This will also be reinforced in school. Many of our children travel independently to school. Please encourage your child to travel with others rather than walking alone. Many parents travel to the school with your own children but I ask that you be alert and be guardians to all of our children in Victoria Park as they go to and from school safely. If I receive any further information or advice from the PSNI, I will of course forward this to you.
