INTERNATIONAL WALK TO SCHOOL MONTH
October is International Walk to School Month, when pupils around the globe celebrate the joys of walking and wheeling to school.
This year, we are going on an Autumn Street Safari! Take a few minutes on your walk to school to collect special items and celebrate autumn with some fun activities.
Will you dance around a mushroom? Juggle with pinecones? Make up a scary story? See how many activities you can cross off the list!
Download yours in English or Welsh via the links and enter our prize draw below!
Join us on an Autumn Street Safari
Who can take part?
Anyone! We’re encouraging pupils to walk, wheel, cycle or scoot to school as much as possible in October, but kids who can’t walk to school can also try out the activities in the playground.
Autumn Street Safari activities are also perfect for having fun with family and friends on the weekend.
It’s a cold snap!
Slugs, autumn leaves or squirrels – post your Autumn Street Safari photos and videos on social media to show us what you spot!
Don’t forget to use the #AutumnStreetSafari and #InternationalWalktoSchoolMonth hashtags.
Spread the word!
Let's get more people joining us on safari! Download our comms pack with shareables available in English and Welsh to help spread the word. There's also some copy for school newsletters that you can use.
