Calderwood Primary School has started to use the award-winning WOW Travel Tracker bringing walks to school challenge to life.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

What is WOW?<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

WOW is a pupil-led initiative where children self-report how they get to school every day using our interactive\u00a0WOW Travel Tracker. If pupils travel sustainably at least once a week for a month, they are rewarded with a collectable monthly WOW badge. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Pupils will log daily journeys to school on the system. The WOW Travel Tracker also confirms which pupils have walked enough to earn a badge each month and these key statistics can be used to earn your school a Modeshift STARS award.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The WOW Travel Tracker can use icons instead of pupil’s names, but classrooms have the option to display name tags should they wish to. Our<\/strong>\u00a0\u2018Walk\/ Wheel\u2019<\/strong>\u00a0icon on Travel Tracker counts as an active journey. This icon includes<\/strong> pupils<\/strong>\u00a0walking with the use of mobility aids, including wheelchairs or wheeled walkers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

WOW badges<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

WOW rewards children who travel actively to school with collectable badges. The badges are unique and designed by the pupils themselves in our annual WOW Badge Design Competition.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

All of our WOW badges are made from recycled plastic material, including old fridge trays, plastic plates and even yoghurt pot off-cuts that were otherwise destined for landfill. They are produced locally in Cornwall, reducing our carbon footprint. The badges also arrive to schools in environmentally friendly, biodegradable packaging.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please see some of the badges which have won so far!<\/strong><\/p>\n
