CAMBA is welcoming everyone into 2024 with one of our favourite events of the year! Kew Traffic school is one of the events that really sets the club up for the year, not only in helping the cub fundraise money BUT more importantly being able to get together with friends and family after the break. We have the 4pm session, so this means we can provide dinner in the form of a sausage sizzle!!   Kew Traffic School is full of roads, roundabouts, intersections, traffic lights, street signs, railway crossings and mini trams. It is a great place for children aged between 2 and 10 years to gain confidence and develop road safety skills, away from the dangers of real traffic, BUT we also want to see those with multiples under 2 come along as well. There is plenty of grassy undercover areas to put a picnic rug out, even if it's only for one hour. Bring along grandparents to help as well. The more the merrier! The track is suitable for bikes, scooters and ride-on pedal cars. It’s important to note:- children need to bring their own bicycle or scooter and helmet. Carers or parents must stay and supervise their children. CAMBA has organised lots of fun things for the day... including a sausage sizzle which means dinner is served!, fundraising activities for the kids, plus much more....... so please bring along Gold Coins or notes are also welcome ;) RSVP HERE  or the event link below.
