Our school crossing supervisors do an amazing job helping children and adults to safely cross roads. 🚸We have around 20 school crossings in the #MacedonRanges, and today, on School Crossing Supervisor Safety Awareness Day, they will be wearing ribbons to celebrate their hard work, and to honor Brian Beach from Wodonga, who tragically lost his life while on duty in 2024. Thank you to our school crossing supervisors for all that they do.
