National Walk and Ride Safely to School Day
On Friday 17 May 2019, Austins Ferry Primary School will participate in Walk and Ride Safely to School Day.
We will be hosting a free community healthy breakfast at Breakfast Club in the Kitchen Garden for all students and their parents/carers who participate by safely walking or riding to school.
Now in its 20th year, National Walk Safely to School Day (WSTSD) is an annual event encouraging all Primary School students commute safely to school.
The purpose is to promote Road Safety, Health, Public Transport and the Environment:
- Teach safe ways to behave around roads and traffic
- Consider our transport habits
- Incorporate physical activity into our daily routine
- Prevent health related issues e.g. obesity and heart disease.
