Walk to School Week is run by the charity Living Streets and is a yearly event to raise awareness of walking and other active ways to travel. This year’s event will be taking place 19 – 23 May 2025. This year’s challenge will see pupils take on The Great Space Walk, encouraging them to travel actively to school every day of the week. 

In Crew we will be sharing how we have travelled to school each day. I wonder if you’re up to the challenge?

Extra activities to get involved in:

You could even get involved by counting how many steps you walk each day.
