At Flourish, we believe that walking to school is more than just a mode of transportation. It's also an opportunity for children to develop healthy habits, learn about their environment, and start their day with a positive boost. That’s why we are thrilled to support Walk to School Week with a suite of free resources designed for parents, carers, and schools.
Why Walk to School?
Walking to school has numerous benefits:
- Health: Regular walking helps children stay active, promoting physical health and well-being.
- Environmental Impact: Walking reduces traffic congestion and pollution around schools, contributing to a cleaner environment.
- Safety and Awareness: Walking teaches children road safety skills and increases their awareness of the local community.
