Golden Walking Ticket:
This is an Active Schools Walking Ticket. Each time you have either walked, biked, scootered to or from school you can ask your parents to cross out one of the stars on your ticket.
Once you have filled out all 15 stars your ticket will be entered into a raffle for the major prize! Each ticket entered will allow the student to pick a prize from the Active School Lucky Dip!
If your parents drive you to school you can still enter the competition by parking away from the school and walking to class. Every little bit counts!
Parents please see Glen Eira City Council’s Terms and Conditions by visiting https://www.gleneira.vic.gov.au
