October - Walk to School Month
St Mary's Annual Walk to School Day is Friday 3rd November. Families will meet with staff at the Coles carpark at 8am. We will then head to the foreshore and arrive at school in time for Assembly.
It’s time to hit the pavement and take part in this year’s VicHealth Walk to School program supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire and Peninsula Health. Walk to School is an annual program encouraging kids to ride, walk or scoot to school during the month of October. We know walking to school can be a challenge for some families, so this year, we encourage families to reduce the pressure and do whatever is realistic! This could include:
• Parking a little further from school to get in a few more steps before the school gate.
• Walk part of the way.
• Walk one or two mornings per week... every extra step counts!
• Organise for your kids to walk to school with a group of friends along the walking tracks.
