Fun fact: A child that walks to school for 10 minutes daily will spend over 32 hours getting to know their neighbourhood over the course of a school year. Why does that matter? 🧵

We’re at St Paul’s elementary school all day with our Footprints project! Students are beautifying the spaces outside the school while also sending a reminder message to walk or roll to school if you can. 1/2

And if you do need to drive, try dropping off a little further away from the school, which will free up space and make the street even more child friendly!

It was an inspiring afternoon hearing from Mme McCluskey’s grade 5 class at Earl Kitchener School on how to make their walk to school safer. Thank you to Daily School Route @DailySchoolRte for your partnership! Onward!

"We know exercise is a critical part of the school day because it helps optimize brain health. As walking & cycling can help achieve this, the school day really begins as soon as a child starts their journey to school & ends when they arrive home." civicplan.ca/student-streets…

This school year, St. Ann Hamilton students identified an alley that many use to get to school. They wanted to make the alley more student-friendly, so they cleaned it and held an art contest. The winning art was posted on a fence in the alley. Way to go students!
