Walk Safely to School Day

On Wednesday 17th May we celebrated 'Walk Safely to School Day'.  It was a wonderful celebration that many students participated in.

 

Once students arrived at school they were offered a free peice of fruit and a temporary tattoo to commemorate the day.

 

This annual event encourages all primary school children to walk and commute safely to school. This event is a great opportunity for schools and families to encourage safe road user behaviours, not just one day but every day.

See what our student leader had to say....

On Wednesday last week the school had a walk to school day. On walk to school day the teachers encouraged students to walk to school from either home or if home was too far to walk from to from a park or a place that’s closer to school. When students got to school they had a choice of getting a piece of fruit and a temporary tattoo. There were three options of fruit bananas, apples or mandarins. We thank the teachers, art, faith and social justice and wellbeing leaders who helped make this event happen. By Shaenyce

A huge thank you to Michael from Michael's Fresh Food Market IGA.  Michael supplied all the lovely fruit that students enjoyed on the day.
