Knox Academy has been given the opportunity to attend the ‘2Moro’s Driver’ event on Wednesday 2 September 2009.  The event is organised by Lothian and Borders Police Road Safety Unit and is open to pupils in S6.

It is a multi-agency event, which is based on a play funded by Road Safety Scotland and performed by the Baldy Bane Theatre Company.  It deals with the fun, risks and the responsibilities involved when becoming a new driver and getting a first car.

The event will be held at the Brunton Theatre in Musselburgh and will last from 9.40 am – 12.30 pm (approximately).  A bus will transport pupils to and from the event with staff supervision. There is no cost to yourself as The Community Safety Forum has agreed to fund the transport to this event.

If you would like your son/daughter to attend, please complete and sign the enclosed parental consent form and return it to school by Thursday 27 August 2009.  Any pupil who does not return this form will not be allowed to attend the event. The form should be given to Miss Garwood.

We are sure you will agree that this is an extremely worthwhile event, especially at this time of year when our current S6 will soon become tomorrow’s young drivers.
