Walk to School Week
20th May - 24th May 2019
Dear Parents/Carers,
As you may or may not be aware, next week is national Walk to School Week, where pupils and grown-ups around the UK are encouraged to walk to school. Each year Living Streets develop a new five-day walking challenge aimed at primary schools - the perfect activity to take part in during Walk to School Week.
This year, to celebrate their 90th anniversary, the challenge will get to the heart of walking and how it can benefit the whole community as well as improve individual wellbeing.
Each child will receive an activity pack with activities which are designed to make the pupils feel empowered to change their walking environment for the better: they'll experience first-hand the importance of walking to school.
Each classroom will have a fun wallchart and stickers. Children will work collaboratively to fill their wallchart with a sticker earned each time they walk to school throughout the course of the week.
Please note that if your child walks to school already, whether alone (KS2 children only) or with an appropriate adult, please ensure that they are aware of how to keep safe on or nearby busy and congested places, especially with our imminent building work.
If you would like to find out more information on this event, feel free to take a look at https://www.livingstreets.org.uk/walk-to-school/parents.
Many thanks for your support

Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) and Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural understanding (SMSC) enables children to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society. We encourage our pupils to play a positive role in contributing to the life of the school and the wider community. In so doing we help develop their sense of self worth. We teach them how society is organised and governed. We ensure that they experience the process of democracy in school through the school council. We teach them about rights and responsibilities. They learn to appreciate what it means to be a positive member of a diverse multicultural society.
Our Mission Statement is - 'Personal, social and health education (PSHE) and citizenship enables children to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society through the teaching of the three core themes.' The three core themes are: Health and Well Being, Relationships and Living in the wider world- Economic wellbeing and being a responsible citizen.
