Empowering Young People to Make Rail Safety a Priority

A new collaboration between KiwiRail, TrackSAFE NZ and Kaitiaki o Ara Students against Dangerous Driving puts rangitahi/young people at the centre of rail safety education.

By encouraging peer-to-peer learning, students are empowered to share important rail safety messages with their friends, schools, and wider communities.

Any secondary school students can use these resources, whether they are a member of SADD or not.

What’s Available?

A suite of brand-new resources is now available to help students lead the way in promoting safer behaviour around trains and railway tracks. These include:

• Stats and facts about New Zealand’s rail network and the risks people face around level crossings and tracks.
• Ideas for action – practical ways to raise rail safety awareness in your school or local area.
• Interactive ‘Pick a Pathway’ games that let students make decisions in real-life scenarios involving trains, to help build understanding and safer habits.

All the materials are available to download now from the SADD website.
