Kew Traffic School is a fun and engaging space for children aged 2 to 10 years.
In January, Kew Traffic School will be open for public play and ride sessions to help children develop important cycling and road safety skills while having fun.
Children can gain confidence and practice riding their bikes or scooters around a mini road track complete with road signs, roundabouts, railway crossings and traffic lights.
Children need to bring their own bicycle or scooter and helmet to join in the fun.
Parents and carers must stay and supervise their children.
The facility is also available for limited private bookings and parties throughout the year, featuring a large party room with kitchen facilities.
Be quick, weekends get booked out quickly. Party and private bookings open six months in advance.
During school term, kindergartens and school groups can book to attend Kew Traffic
School’s safety education program.
The evidence-based program aims to empower children to stay safe both at home and on the roads.
Themes covered by safety educators include pedestrian safety, bike safety and identifying hazards on the road.
The traffic school is a well-known and much-loved icon in the City of Boroondara and feedback since its redevelopment last year has been overwhelmingly positive.
Many parents attended the centre themselves as a child, and the new facilities have breathed fresh life into the centre for a new generation.
Public ride and play sessions are available to book during the school holidays on weekdays from Monday 9 January to Wednesday 25 January 2023.
