Ride & Stride Day – Friday March 20 🚶‍♀️🚲

Get ready to move! On Friday March 20, we’re encouraging all students and families to Ride or Stride to School. Whether you walk, ride a bike, or scoot, choose a sustainable way to travel and help make our streets more active and connected.

In Merri-bek, our streets belong to everyone who walks, rides, plays and drives. We want more children to feel safe, confident and able to walk or ride around their local neighbourhoods, and by 2030 we’re aiming for 80% of all trips to our schools to be made using sustainable transport, such as walking, cycling or scooting.

Students can 'tag' how they travelled to and from school on the day. Ride & Stride tags are available from the school office for $1 in your child's house colour. They have to be registered by parents/carers before the day. Once the students 'Tags-on', it sends an email to the registered user to say that your child is safely at school. 

Let’s get our community moving — see you walking, riding or scooting to school!
