RYDA Road Safety Education opportunity for students


Hi all

 

Ivan Wilson and I are facilitator's for the RYDA Road Safety Education programme event happening next Thursday 11th May 9.30 am – 2pm at St John Headquarters, 112 Waterwalk Road. 

 

The programme is very short of numbers and risks being pulled (only 22 students currently enrolled and only  two students from Grey High).   RYDA is designed for 16-18 year old students who are approaching that crucial time in their lives where they start to drive independently or are travelling as passengers of novice drivers.  As such, enrolment is now open for polytechnic students also.  It would be great if we could send some class groups along to support this fantastic initiative.  If you know of any other youth groups that may be interested please forward this on.

 

More information about the programme is available from: http://www.rse.org.au/programs/ryda/ (plus a short summary below)

 

If you would like to give your class the opportunity to attend please contact:

 

Tim Hartnell RYDA Programme Coordinator South Island

southisland@rse.org.nz  or 027 203 7006

 

There is a small fee of $15 per student (but if you're students are interested and this is going to be a barrier for them please have a chat with Tim.

 

More info:

At RYDA, students attend six interactive sessions where they are challenged to change the way they think about road safety; participating in a stopping distance demonstration, devising personalised strategies, gaining an understanding of their individual risk profile and getting tips from road safety experts on how to protect themselves, their friends and family.

 

The learning objectives for students attending RYDA are:
