Dutch handout given to school children for their parents.
10 Golden Rules for safe school surroundings

3. There is a safe crossing place
4. ... and a safe school exit
5. Children have an unimpeded view
6. For parents there is ample waiting space
7. There are bicycle racks for parents
8. ... and for the children good cycle parking with free places
9. The school bus takes the best parking space
