Celebrating Queensland’s School Crossing Supervisors’ 40 Years Service During National Road Safety Week (Monday 26 – Friday 30 August)
This year, Queensland’s School Crossing Supervisor Scheme celebrates 40 years of keeping kids safe as they travel to and from school.
The Department of Transport and Main Roads is celebrating this milestone across the state during this Queensland Road Safety Week (26-30 August 2024).
So we’d like to say a big ‘thank you’ to our wonderful Canterbury School Crossing Supervisors for everything you do for our students and school community.
You do a great job keeping our students and other pedestrians safe, as they cross the road in peak drop-off and pick-up times.
You too can show your appreciation for our School Crossing Supervisors by slowing down, following directions, and being courteous while travelling within our school zone during peak times.
