‘Walk to School Week coincides with Health Week next week from 17-21st May.

The JRSO have planned a week full of events to encourage participation in Walk to School Week.

Our main event is the EVEREST CHALLENGE.

We are trying to walk the same number of steps over the course of the week to school, as it would take to walk Mount Everest as a whole school. 

We need 58,000 steps!

It would be great if we could all work together to achieve our challenge.

Steps can be counted by your child (an adult can help them), recorded on an activity watch or alternatively the internet can be used to look up the daily walk to school route for how many steps it takes. Teachers will then record the steps as a full class in the hope we can reach 58,000 by the end of the week!

The JRSO would also like all pupils to wear something bright each day; For example: bobbles, bracelet’s, socks, t-shirt, jumpers, shoes etc,  to encourage us all to stay safe while walking to school.

Thank you
