🌳Park & Walk Days — Let’s Walk to School Together!
Following our recent parent survey, we know that more families are interested in swapping car trips for active travel and are keen to connect with like-minded families in our school and local community.
Our upcoming Park & Walk Days are a fantastic opportunity to give walking to school a go, meet other families, and discover potential Walking School Bus groups that could make the school journey easier, more social and more active.
Three Locations — One Journey Together!
On our Park/Walk Days, we will meet at 8:00am at one of three local parks before enjoying the walk to school together:
Sandalford Park, Beldon
Admiral Park, Heathridge
Conidae Park, Heathridge
Monday 31 August — let’s finish our Star Cards strong!
Upon the arrival to school all three groups will meet on the basketball courts.
Anyone who joins us for the walk to school will earn DOUBLE STAMPS on these days!
If the weather isn't too wet, we encourage everyone to embrace the adventure! Grab your umbrellas, pull on your gumboots and come along for a fun start to the school day.
We’re excited to see our community come together and discover just how enjoyable the journey to school can be.
Come along, meet some new families, earn DOUBLE STAMPS and help us build a stronger culture of active travel at our school!
Meet at 8:00am — see you at the park!
We will still continue to walk to school on Friday 28 August as per our normal schedule.
🏫 School Closure - Reminder
