Walk to School Week -16th – 20th May 2011
This week is Walk to School Week and we will be doing lots of work throughout the school to promote walking to school. Please support us!
Why walk to school?
· Good for health and fitness.
· Good for the environment.
· It’s fun to walk and meet our friends on the way.
· We learn about road safety.
What if it’s difficult?
· Try our ‘Park and Stride’ – drive to the National Pub or the YPI and stroll from there!
· Team up with friends and walk together.
What’s happening?
· Children who walk to school will be given a voucher at the gate to exchange for a sticker in the classroom and add to the class chart.
· Poster competition.
· Trophies and prizes for top walking classes.
· Huge bunch of balloons to show carbon emissions from car journeys...
Don’t just walk for the week, walk for life!
