Garda Visit

25th Sep 2021


5th Class pupils at St John the Baptist BNs were delighted to welcome three members of An Garda Síochana as part of The Garda Primary Schools Programme. This is a comprehensive education programme for 5th class pupils in Primary Schools throughout the country.  

The programme consists of a series of presentations given to the school children by their local Gardaí on the role of the Garda, road/cycle Safety, bullying, vandalism, personal safety, drugs, crime prevention and respectful online communication. 

The Programme aims to teach children sensible and responsible patterns of behaviour in order that they may:

  • Be safer on the roads and at home
  • Positively contribute towards Crime Prevention
  • Be aware of the the role of An Garda Síochána
  • Develop positive attitudes towards An Garda Síochána and its work

We would like to thank Sergeant Moloney, Garda Blackburn and Garda Gough for facilitating such a great morning for the boys.
