Sharing vital road safety messages in Maningrida

13 September 2019

Road Safety NT attended one of West Arnhem Regional Council’s Youth, Sport and Recreation in monthly Teacher vs Young People Basketball events in Maningrida on Tuesday, August 20.
Caleb from Road Safety NT (pictured) opened up the event with a conversation with Maningrida young people around road safety and taught them 4 very important actions – click, clack front & back. 
Caleb taught everyone the hand signals of reaching for your seatbelt, clicking it in and then pointing front and back as a fun way to encourage the kids to remember to put on their seat belt when they get in the car and to check front and back.
The games started rolling and the young people had lots of support from, not only teachers, but other community members joining in to play including the Road Safety mob. 
The MVPs of the night got to take home a Road Safety back pack with a football inside and a water bottle.
