‘Be safe and be seen’ as ESB visit two local schools

November 7, 2016

Dublin-based ESB staff have presented high visibility vests to Junior Infants at two Fingal schools in recent weeks.

The safety initiative has been rolled out at Gaelscoil Bhrian Boroimhe in Swords and at Gaelscoil Ros Eo in Rush.

ESB Networks have partnered with the Road Safety Authority (RSA) to distribute over 80,000 high visibility vests to Junior Infants students across the country who started school this year.

The RSA and ESB Networks are calling on parents, guardians and teachers to make sure road safety is top of the school checklist this year.

The high-visibility vests will help children be seen in the dark winter mornings and even darker evenings and is a welcome initiative from the ESB and the Road Safety Authority.

Carmel Hanrahan from the ESB had the pleasure of visiting Gaelscoil Ros Eo to hand over that school’s allocation of high-visibility jackets while it was the happy duty of Noeleen Daniels to deliver the vests to the children at Gaelscoil Bhrian Boroimhe.
