2 June: Walk, scoot, cycle, wheel or park and stride to school

Getting to school under our own power is not only good for us but good for our planet too!

Not arriving at the school gates by car reduces congestion and air pollution and improves road safety too.

There are so many benefits to walking to (or from) school all year round, from physical to mental wellbeing; aiding concentration and creativity and creating safer, less polluted and more welcoming streets. All that makes for a happy, healthy child set up for success in and out of the classroom.

Although Walk to school Week was in May, it's great to walk all year round.
