Ride 2 School Day
Ride 2 School Day
Don’t forget National Ride2School Day is coming up on Friday 24th March 2023.
We encourage our students to use active travel to get to and from school because:
• children arrive at school feeling more alert and ready to learn
• active travel helps students to achieve their recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity, and
• fewer cars on our local streets improve road safety around our school.
Sunshine Coast Council is offering great prizes this Ride2School Day including 4 x $500 bike shop vouchers. A schoolbag flyer will be coming home soon.
You can register your children for Ride2School Day at Councils website before 5.00PM on Friday 24th March 2023. Children can ride, scoot or skate to be eligible.
This year Council is encouraging students to ‘buddy up’ with their friends and ride to school together. Parents can join in by riding with children.
Families who live far from school can still participate. Just park the car a kilometre away and ride, scoot or skate the rest of the way.
All students riding to school are required to wear helmets (this includes children on scooters and skateboards).
We would love to see our students continue riding to school throughout the year.
