Walk to School Week took place this week. We hope that pupils, parents and staff had an enjoyable time taking part to promote sustainable travel in and around the City.
This year’s theme for the five-day walking challenge was The Magic of Walking.
It encouraged children to travel actively to school every day of the week. Meeting various magical beings along the way, the children learnt about the important reasons to walk or wheel and its benefits for individuals, communities and the planet!
Walking has so many benefits 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.
It has been wonderful to see everyone enjoying their walk to school as they join thousands of children across the country to celebrate the wide range of benefits that walking brings.
Thank you for your support for Walk to School Week 2024.
