On Wednesday 6th October one of Poynton's special Lollipop Ladies visited the Hollies. She gave the children a lesson in crossing the road safely and showed the special clothing she wears to do her very important job.
|
The shiny yellow coat has special stripes made of material which reflects light in the dark.
|
There are even special yellow reflective gloves - not just to keep hands warm.
|
Our Lollipop Lady passed round the gloves so the children could see them properly.
|
The importance of the Lollipop.
|
The Lollipop is also made of special materials so it is easy for traffic to see and also reflects light.
|
The Lollipop Lady brought a smaller uniform for the children to try on.

|
|
A helping hand.
|
The Lollipop Lady showed the children how to cross Hazelbadge Road safely.
|
Before crossing the children stand back while she looks both ways to make sure there is no traffic.
|
When safe to cross she moved into the road with her Lollipop and her arms out wide.
|
Children walk safely across the road .....
|
..... and back again.
