Free Your Feet

During week beginning 21 May 2012 ‘Free Your Feet’ a week long whole school event which encourages all pupils to make walking part of his/her mode of transport to and from school will take place.

All pupils are encouraged to take part and can do so by:

  • walking the whole way to and from school
  • walking to and from the bus stop
  • walking from the drop off point in the car park at Broom shops.

If every pupil participates in some way we hope that together we will:

  • raise awareness of the health benefits of regular exercise as part of every day life
  • reduce traffic congestion and increase pupil safety
  • make a contribution to improving the environment by reducing pollution
