Walk to School Week
Walk to School Week events are held in May and October each year to highlight the fun and healthy alternative to using the car. The benefits of walking to school are numerous and it also creates a great opportunity for children to learn vital road safety skills.
If you would like to take part in Walk to School Week we can provide:
- posters to advertise the event
- stickers for all the children who walk
- colourful posters to record how children travel.
And whenever possible, a member of the road safety team will visit the school during the event to offer support.
