🔬 February 7 is Periodic Table Day — marking 154 years of periodic law!

It's Road Safety Week this week. Lots of schools are on board and helping kids understand their role in being road safety heroes. How can you help improve the sobering reality of road safety in Aotearoa? 340 lives were lost last year in road-related incidents. We can all put the basics into practice...
Stay Focused: Avoid using phones while driving. Every distraction puts lives at risk.
Slow Down: Don't rush! Respect speed limits and adjust your driving to the conditions. Slowing down saves lives.
Lead by Example: Model safe road behavior for our tamariki. Wear seat belts, use cycle lanes, use pedestrian crossings...
What are some other ideas you can come up with?
