What is "walk to School?" Now we are working on a programme of "Walk to School". We would like as many parents and children as possible to take part, even if in a small way. Children who walk to and from school along with their parents can learn essential road safety and life skills. You can take part by... #Walking to and from school with your child every day. #Walking for one or two days during the week. #Encouraging  others to walk, if you already do. Walking is great! #Walking is great exercise! A walk is good for your body and can keep you fit. #You won't have to waste time looking for a parking site . #It's pollution free. #It's a good chance to talk to your children and to meet other parents, too.
