Walking to School
Tips
Cycling to School

- Establishes positive active travel habits.
- Promotes independence and improves safety awareness.
- Reduces congestion, noise and pollution in the community.
- Reduces the environmental impact of the journey to school.
If you and your children would like to cycle to school please collect a form from the school office. When the form has been returned, we will issue you with a permit for your child’s bike or bikes. If you decide to stop cycling to school with your child/ren, please return your permit to the office so that it can be reissued to another family. Parents are advised to take out appropriate insurance cover as the school’s insurance does not cover loss or damage to bicycle
Please complete the attached form and return to the office to apply for a bike permit. If the permit is for an independent cyclist, please attach the child’s road cycling training certificate.
