Walk to School Month

October is Walk to School Month and we would like to encourage all the children to walk to school this month.

Walking to school has many benefits, not only is it good for your health and the environment, but it’s also fun and a great opportunity to socialise with your child, so why not try and include a ten walk in your journey to school.
