Walk & Roll to School is a year-round program that encourages students to walk, cycle or scooter to school. There are individual prizes and incentives to keep students motivated, in addition to monthly class competitions for the highly coveted “Golden Shoe Award.”
Gentle exercise in the morning is a great way to start the day. Even if your walk takes only 10 minutes, it could add over 1.5 hours of exercise each week! Our goal is to encourage students to walk or bike throughout the school year. In addition to personal health benefits, it will ease traffic congestion/parking in the neighborhood, reduce pollution, and save energy.
What if I Live too Far Away to Walk, Roll or Scooter to School?
If you find it necessary to drive your child to school, consider parking or dropping your child off outside the “Walk & Roll to School” boundary marked below, so that he or she can be counted as having participated. Also, this way the children will get more exercise! Of course, if you live within the boundary and walk or roll to school, it counts.
