Walk to School Week

#PowerUp for Walk to School Week 

Walk to School Week is an annual five day walking challenge to celebrate the Walk to School, join us on 20th – 24th May!

A huge thank you every single school, pupil and family who joined Walk to School Week this year! Over 1,000 schools and nearly 300,000 pupils walked to school for a whole week – making it our biggest one yet!

The fun and engaging week-long activity for primary schools has been built to make pupils experience first-hand the importance of walking to school.

Through this challenge, children will be well on their way to reaching their recommended 60 minutes minimum of physical activity per day before even reaching the school gates! 

Are your pupils ready to #PowerUp? This year’s challenge, #PowerUp, will engage pupils through video game-inspired design, encouraging them to travel sustainably to school every day of the week. Each day will see a level unlocked and a new mission to complete, through which pupils will discover the incredible benefits of walking for individuals, communities and the planet.
