DITCH THE DARK DAY TOMORROW!

Thu 19 Oct 2023

Looking forward to 𝔻𝕀𝕋ℂℍ 𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝔻𝔸ℝ𝕂 Day tomorrow!

Aiming to raise awareness of safe travel to school during the darker days and we are encouraging children to actively travel (walk, scoot, cycle, park and stride) to school wearing the brightest clothing they can! (𝕚𝕥'𝕤 𝕒 𝕟𝕠𝕟-𝕦𝕟𝕚𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕞 𝕕𝕒𝕪!)🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚴‍♀️🚲🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🛴🛴

Children are invited to get creative with their outfits and be super bright. The possibilities are endless – bright clothing, fluorescent orange socks, a pink tutu, a neon green wig, hi-vis – get 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐒𝐓! 🔆🦺🦺

Parents are more than welcome to join in too! Please feel free to dress to impress in your best neon bright clothing and travel to school actively with your child on the day!

We understand that it might not be possible for everyone to actively travel to school the whole way, particularly if you live far away. In this case we’d encourage you to park a distance away from school and walk the final part of the journey to school with your child. In doing so we hope to reduce the number of cars around school and have lots of active kids!

Why not join our walking bus which will leave the Witch's Hat(bandstand) in The Crescent at 8.30am SHARP on the day.

Looking forward to a fun filled Active Travel Day!
