THE Donegal Road Safety
Working Group and Finn Harps FC have once again teamed
up to assist with the promotion of road safety with the
Primary School Road Safety Art Competition. The Road
Safety Art Competition invites young artists, from
Inishowen primary schools, to create a piece of visual
art that will raise awareness of how to stay safe on our
roads. The theme of the competition this year is
“Travelling to School Safely”. The winning artwork will
be displayed at Finn Park for the 2022 season and also
at Kernan’s Supermarkets, Newtowncunningham and Drumkeen.
There will be individual prizes as well as a special
prize for the school of the winning pupil. |

County Council are delighted with the continued efforts
of Finn Harps Football Club to help promote greater
awareness of the dangers on our roads. Children are
among our most vulnerable road users so we all have a
responsibility to make sure they develop good road
safety habits at an early age. The Primary School Art
Competition will help raise awareness, change behaviour
and influence all road users about road safety. Everyone
who uses the roads has a role to play in keeping our
roads safe”.
