The weather wasn’t always kind to us this week, but where they could, the boys and girls (and adults too!) made a great effort to take part in our Walk to School week!
We were delighted to see so many walking to school. Indeed many children also came to school on scooters and bicycles which is another great way to arrive to St. Paul’s in an environmentally friendly way!
This week, the children were learning about the benefits of walking for our minds, our bodies and the environment- take the opportunity this weekend to go for a walk and help us to keep fit, keep healthy and keep green!

Next week is “National Walk to School Week” (Monday, September 19th to Friday, 23rd of September). This is a week where we want to celebrate walking as a positive mode for school journeys. Next week, especially on Wednesday 21st, we would like to encourage the children to walk to school (where possible) or park and stride (where parents/ childminders park their car at a destination close by and walk the rest of the journey to school together). In school, the children will participate in a variety of activities, linked to different areas of the curriculum, that aim to promote the benefits of choosing walking as a mode of transport.
We fully appreciate that it is not always possible, for a variety of reasons, for children and their parents to walk to school and the children will be reassured that we understand that.
We look forward to seeing the children next week on their walk to school and helping us to make a positive difference to our environment and helping our community and school environment to be as green as can be!
