Next week is the national Walk to School Week. We would like to encourage as many pupils as possible to walk to school next week. We are hopeful that this will be a BIG celebration and a whole lot of FUN! To make the week special, we would love for our pupils to dress up each day. The themes are as follows:
| Day | Walk to school wearing… |
| Monday | silly socks or odd shoes! |
| Tuesday | crazy hair! |
| Wednesday | a hat and/or sunglasses! |
| Thursday | bright colours! |
| Friday | something purple for Ayrshire Hospice. |
Walking to school helps children feel happier and healthier and they arrive refreshed, fit and ready to learn. More families walking means fewer cars on the road during the school run, helping to reduce congestion and pollution at the school gates. If you live too far away or don’t have time to walk the whole way to school, you can ‘Park and Stride’.
If you would like to make a small monetary donation towards the Ayrshire Hospice on Friday, this would be gratefully received, although there is no obligation to do so.
