Why Walk to School? (8 minutes)

This film is for any school that wants to promote walking and get their children excited about being more active!

Schools can use the film in assemblies or in the classroom, to highlight the benefits of walking to school and how fun it can be. The film is aimed at children and we hope encourage them to either keep walking, or try it out.

A 'Spot Strider' interactive game for children is also included!

If you are a school that uses Walk Once a Week (WoW) resources, then watch the next film down, which explains more about the scheme and how it works.
