Building Bonds at Chase Lane School: Big Questions from Little Learners!

Dear Valley Ward Members,

#CommunityCrimeFighting #ValleySNTOfficers #Boss. 👮‍♀️ Valley SNT Officers with The Boss Ma'am Jackson at Chase Lane School! 👮‍♂️ Today, Ma’am Jackson, PC 1617NE Andrews, PC 1326NE Mann and PCSO 7174NE Tailor visited Chase Lane School (E4) to meet a group of energetic 4–5 year olds. 

We spoke to the children about police uniforms and the different equipment we carry on duty — including the radio, handcuffs, baton, PAVA spray, body‑worn camera and body armour. 

The highlight of the day? The pupils loved getting hands‑on with some of the kit! A few even tried on the body armour (with big smiles!) and were fascinated by how everything works. 

They also absolutely loved sitting in the marked police minibus — especially when the blue lights and sirens were switched on! 🚨😄

 Always a pleasure engaging with our youngest community members. 💙
