Walking School Bus

Rachael Hamilton —

Do you want to reduce the congestion outside the school, help the environment, meet new people and get fit? Then the perfect solution is in the Walking School Bus.

A walking school bus is a group of children who walk together to/from school with parent supervisors along a set route. Parents take turns and shouldn’t need to walk more than one day a week. The other 4 days are free.

The children have fun, socialise with other children and arrive at school on time. It’s also a healthy way to get to school and reduces congestion at the school gate.

If you’re interested in finding out more about what a walking school bus is, please come to a meeting on Thursday 5th August at 9 am in the school staffroom.
