Road safety education must be part of school curriculum – Mpumalanga pupils
19 September 2017
Bushbuckridge – Pupils competing in the Mpumalanga Provincial Participatory Education Techniques Competition have called for road safety education to be included in the schools' curriculum.
They argued that instilling knowledge of road safety and regulations in citizens from a young age and on regular basis would reduce road crashes.
Four secondary schools represented by five pupils from the Ehlanzeni, Nkangala, Gert Sibande and Bohlabela regions competed for a place in the national finals that will be held in the North West next month.
This year, Mpumalanga will be represented by Nkangala region's DM Motsaosele Secondary School and Lugebhuta Secondary School from the Ehlanzeni region.
