Join Suzi and all her friends on her journey to the nature reserve
From learning the importance of staying with an adult, to understanding what a level crossing does and how to behave around the rail environment, pupils will learn a range of essential Switched On safety skills.
Open up Suzi’s map below and pick a resource to start! Each stop offers the opportunity to earn a special Switched On badge.
Once you are done with those resources, why not try out some of our other resources and continue to get your pupils Switched On to rail safety.
Teacher guidance
All activities are supported with teacher guidance notes for ease, outlining everything you need to know to deliver our resources with confidence. Each guidance document provides key learning themes, outcomes and curriculum links, as well as additional delivery ideas and methods to support the use of the resources in the classroom and tips for remote learning.
Teacher guidance can be accessed and downloaded alongside the activities on each resource page.

Some pupils may already be familiar with the train station but others may not. This interactive quiz uses real-life images to help children recognise and become more familiar with key features they might find at the train station.
