St Thomas CofE Primary Academy 24th Mar
Join Us for the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel Event!
We are excited to announce that our school will be taking part in the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel event starting Monday, March 24th for two weeks! This is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to get active and promote walking and sustainable travel.
Here's how you can get involved:
Walk or Park and Stride: We encourage as many students and families as possible to walk to school or use the park and stride method.
Prize Draw: Any child who has walked or used the park and stride method for 75% of the two weeks will be entered into a prize draw! So, get walking to increase your chances of winning. For the Year 3 children who will be out on a residential for two days, 75% will be based on the days they are actually in school.
Scooters and Bikes: To make break and lunchtime even more fun, we will be sectioning off parts of the playground so that children can bring their scooters and bikes for some extra outdoor fun during the day.
Steps Challenge: Classes will also be participating in a 'How Many Steps Can You Walk?' investigation. Each class will predict how many steps it will take to walk 3 laps of the field, and then they will complete the challenge to see how close their predictions were.
Let's get moving, have fun, and support the planet! Don't forget to walk, park and stride, or bring your scooter or bike to school. We can't wait to see everyone taking part and working together to make this event a huge success!
Let's make the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel event a memorable and active two weeks!
