All staff at the school are very concerned about the safety of our children at the beginning and end of the schoolday. We wholeheartedly support the Friends' Committee in their campaign.
Please could everyone visiting the school remember to park safely and consider our local residents. Thank you.

Would hate people to think that Norwich Road, Clint Green is a race track! Since the roundabout at Honningham onto the A47 opened, traffic through Yaxham, Clint Green, Mattishall, East Tuddenham and the surrounding areas has increased, especially during morning and evening rush hours. Motorists are taking advantage of access onto the A47 ahead of traffic travelling towards Norwich. We hear on the Yaxham jungle drums that traffic lights could be installed but not sure that this will solve our problem. What we need is for more people to join the speedwatch team. Speedwatch was definitely making a difference, but due to the severe winter the team have not been out in force since last Autumn and drivers seem to be taking advantage of this and speeding through the village again. Can you spare an hour a week to join the speedwatch team? With more people we could send a strong message to speeding motorists. Come on everyone - lets make a difference. If you are short of time, an hour once a month is all you need to offer. Many of the speedwatch team are also doing full time jobs.

The Friends of Yaxham School (our PTA), the Governors and Staff are trying to reduce the risk of children and parents/carers and residents from being injured or killed by speeding traffic outside the school. We are talking to the County Council about our ideas and actively campaigning for a 20mph speed limit outside the school. Please sign the petition at the school and the village hall. Let us know what you think.
