INSIDE EACH PACK YOU WILL FIND:
  • Teacher guidance

You can still buy last year's packs for Mission Move for your classroom. All packs are undated, so you can join in on the fun of Walk to School Week at any time of year. Each KS1 and KS2 pack is only £13.50 and includes fun, curriculum-linked activities that encourage pupils to walk and wheel to school.

 

EVERYONE CAN JOIN IN!

As a walking charity we want to remove barriers to active travel. We support pupils with special educational needs and disabilities to enjoy walking, including travel by wheelchair or mobility scooter. Encouraging parents to park even a little way from the school reduces congestion and air pollution at the school gates and improves road safety. Pupils can walk or wheel the last few minutes into school and still earn their reward. However, we understand that walking/wheeling to school, even part of the way, might not be an option for all. In these cases, we encourage pupils to become Walk to School Week ambassadors and assist the teacher in running the challenge to earn their own reward.
