Children at Redriff Primary School have been visited by police officers and PCSOs from Surrey Docks safer neighbourhoods team  as part of the pupils’ ‘super heroes in the community’ project.

The local SNT members talked to the reception classes about what the police do, how they help members of the public and important crime prevention advice such as how to stay safe.

The team brought a police van to the school so the children could sit inside, hear the sirens and be shown all the equipment used by officers to help them arrive at a scene quickly.

“We are happy to have the opportunity to share important crime prevention advice and to be a part of their ‘super heroes in the community’ project,” said PCSO Amy Kempson.

“The whole team enjoyed meeting all the children and must have made an impression as a few days after the school visit, the children sent pictures they drew for the team of their special day!”
