Road safety worksheets

Convenient bite-sized lessons that are easy for teachers to use, giving students progressive road safety learning that grows as they do.

We worked with Tātai Aho Rau Core Education to develop this resource. The Core Education team consulted with kaiako in kura kaupapa Māori to ensure that all akonga could see how these worksheets relate to the journeys they take.

• Five worksheets in English and a matching five in te reo Māori for each year group.
• Years 1-2, Years 3-4, Years 5-6, Years 7-8 and Years 9-10.
