Class is in session today for students in Christ The Redeemer School Division.

With it being the first official day back it means school zones are now back in effect.

Motorists are reminded of the 30 kilometre speed limit in school zones from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

They're also required to stop for school buses when their red lights are flashing.

An eye should also be kept out for pedestrians and crosswalks.
