Pupils from Driffield Junior School have received a donation of high visibility vests to encourage safety while walking to school.
The donation, made by the Driffield Specsavers Store, was part of Walk to School Week, which runs from Monday 20 May to Friday 24 May.
Mrs Sue Barraclough, head teacher at Driffield Junior School, said: “We are pleased to be the recipients of the hi-visibility vests from the Driffield Specsavers and would like to say a massive thank you.”
Deryck Watts, store director at Driffield Specsavers, said: “As part of the initiative, we are also hoping to raise awareness about free eye tests and glasses that are available to children under 16. It is important to make sure that children have regular eye tests, as an undetected problem could lead to something more severe in the long term.”
