My son is in Reception, and off on his first school trip this week.
I am really pleased they are taking them out, the school have a lovely day planned for them. My issue, is the travel arrangements.
The school have a mini bus, plus they are hiring another. The children are all aged 4/5 Years but they wont be in car seats!
Car seat safety is very important to me, i have always researched, and purchased the safest seats i can for my children, and i cant help but worry about him travelling without a seat. Why when there is a car seat law, are schools aloud to take children out in a vehicle without them?
What do other schools do? What are other parents thoughts?
I won't stop him from going as its part of the excitement of the trip, but it just concerns me that children are travelling at risk. A full adult seatbelt doesnt fit a child of this age correctly.
