Back to MonmouthshireBeavering Away with Gilwern Beavers
The winter challenge for any group meeting in the evening is how to be visible by drivers.
The challenge for road safety is keeping up with the quick-fire answers from this very informed group of children.
Only between the ages of 6 and 8, no way did this limit the extent of their knowledge.
“What material do you wear to keep you safe in the day time?” was the question asked. “Fluorescent” rolled off the tongue of a young Beaver.
In fact, this was a word which was actually bigger than him!
As dusk rapidly transformed into darkness, the Beavers were able to see how effective it is to wear something reflective in a real night time situation.
