5 Min Walk Zone
The 5 minute walk zone is to encourage parents and children to park away from the school and walk the rest of the journey. The sheriffs went for a walk around the surrounding area to mark specific lamp posts with stickers, which indicate where the walk zone begins.
This has many benefits
- Improved environment around the school, with less traffic, pollution and noise
- promotes active travel and increases exercise levels in children.
- Children can learn essential pedestrian skills
- Parents can save time by avoiding congestion around school.
