Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

The pupils launched a petition asking the Waimakariri District Council to add a pedestrian crossing and reduce the speed limit outside their school.

“Our school is growing quickly, and we need to have road crossings and a slower traffic area so that we can cross safely," they say.
