Trailblazers
Dear Parent/Carer,
After the summer break, New Cumnock Primary School will be participating in the Trailblazers trial – a joint Ayrshire project looking to improve road safety and increase active and sustainable travel to school. Ahead of the trial launching, a short survey has been prepared to understand current travel behaviours and attitudes around active and sustainable travel to school. I would be most grateful if you could take a few minutes to share your thoughts via the short survey provided at the following link:
Trailblazers Parent Questionnaire (snapsurveys.com)
The deadline for survey response is the 30th of June.
Thanks in advance for your support.
