With school zones busier than ever during pick-up and drop-off times, it’s essential to help students stay safe around traffic. The WalkSafe program, offered free of charge by the City of Ottawa and the Ottawa Safety Council, helps students learn how to stay safe around traffic, school buses, and large vehicles — before tragedy strikes. Recent incidents in our community have shown how quickly a moment can change everything. WalkSafe gives students the tools and awareness they need to make safer choices every day — walking to school, riding the bus, or crossing busy streets.
Each session is age-appropriate, engaging, and tailored for:
- JK/SK, Grades 1–2, Grades 3–4, and Grades 5–6
- Available in English & French
The Council's trained safety educators come directly to your school — no cost, no hassle — delivering interactive lessons that meet curriculum goals and save lives. Book your free WalkSafe presentation today. Dates fill quickly.
