Walk to school week

Most children have walked to school or used their bike or scooter this week. Thank you to the parents who have to drive to school, but who have made a big effort to park a little walk away from school so that the children can experience walking part of the journey.


We have been completing a survey each morning to find out how children have come to school. So we have used it as an opportunity to practise keeping tally charts and creating block graphs.
We added walking, cycling and scooting together for one column and the other column is coming by car.

The children have learnt how to cross the road safely. The children have had fun making a road and pretending to be cars, while other children give instructions about how to cross the road safely.



Today we shared what we had learnt with Year 4. We gave them a demonstration and then talked in small groups about how to cross the road safely.
