Walking or riding to school regularly is a great way for children to receive their recommended one hour of physical activity every day. It also helps to ensure they arrive energised and ready to learn.

Our school is participating in the Active Streets for Schools program, which is helping to make the environment around our school safer and more accessible for active travel.

Did you know we have a ride or walk to school map? If your child hasn’t received a hard copy, you can download and print the map from the Transport Canberra website.

The map includes a selection of safe routes to school and highlights ‘part way’ drop off or collection points for families that need to drive but want to avoid congestion at the school gate and allow their children to be physically active for part of the trip.  

Help our school engage in Active Streets by encouraging your children to be active. Students will enjoy the health benefits while you enjoy avoiding school traffic during peak times. Do you have an infrastructure suggestion that will make it safer and easier to walk or ride to school (e.g. a new footpath or crossing)? Contact Transport Canberra to make a suggestion.
