How can you and your child take part?

• If you usually walk to school, then carry on doing exactly that and your child will get their daily sticker!
• If you don’t usually walk, it couldn’t be easier to give it a go! Perhaps you can walk to school just one or two days during the week.
• If you live too far away from school, or you need the car for work, parking a five minute walk away will reduce the congestion outside school. You’ll still get the health benefits and help improve your child’s road sense.
• By taking part, you will be joining the thousands of other children and their parents walking to school in East Renfrewshire.

 Enjoy your walk to school!
