Get ready for the Golden Boot Challenge! What would the roads be like if fewer people drove to school?
Well, here’s your chance to make a difference …. ... and find alternatives to the car on the journey to school.
Did you know … • in the UK, cars on the school run produce over 2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide a year? • That’s more than some small countries produce in a year!
…and leaving the car at home could save your family money! • The average cost of driving a pupil to primary school is £367 per year. • What could you buy with £367 – a new bike perhaps?
If you walk to school, you can: • discover more about where you live; • get some exercise; • avoid the traffic!
if you cycle, or scooter, you can: • have some fun on your way to school; • practise your cycle/scooter skills; • get to school quickly!
or you could catch the bus, or train, or share a lift with a friend … ... great for catching up with all the gossip!
What’s so good about green travel? • it helps the environment; • you get used to travelling on your own; and • you can practise your road safety skills.
…you can record how you travel on the web-site. Have a look! http://www.saferoutestoschools.com/demo/ During the Challenge ….
and the class who uses green travel the most wins …. … the Golden Boot Trophy!
Would you like to record what your school did …. ... and put together an on-line school travel plan? The Safer Travel Team at Surrey County Council can help you with this. http://travelplans.saferoutestoschools.com/school/681/woking-high-school-woking/video/51/woking-high-1/
