This year the Eco council have introduced and organised our Walk Once a Week project.
We monitor each classes progress using the Living streets website and give out badges to all the children who have successfully walked to school at least once a week.
We understand that you may live further a way and need to drive to school so we allowed for this by introducing a park and walk option, this way you still get your badge plus the extra exercise.
Eco council are keen to implement any ideas from their peers. One of the year 6 children questioned why we laminate our award certificates.
We surveyed all the classes and as a school we have agreed:
- Not to laminate certificates
- Have the option to receive a badge only and not a certificate and badge
- Have the option to return bronze, silver and gold badges at the end of the year for recycling
We have many things planned for the future such as a 'green day'.
During lockdown we are unable to continue our 'Walk Once a Week' initiative. However, Living Streets have updated their webpage to include lots of activities for you and your family.
