Get ready for the Golden Boot Challenge!

What would the roads be like if fewer people drove to school?

Well, here’s your chance to make a difference ….

... and find alternatives to the car on the journey to school.

Did you know …• in the UK, cars on the

school run produce over 2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide a year?

• That’s more than some small countries produce in a year!

…and leaving the car at home could save your family money!

• The average cost of driving a pupil to primary school is £367 per year.

• What could you buy with £367 – a new bike perhaps?

If you walk to school, you can: • discover more about

where you live;• get some exercise;• avoid the traffic!

if you cycle, or scooter, you can: • have some fun on

your way to school;• practise your

cycle/scooter skills;• get to school

quickly!

or you could catch the bus, or train, or share a lift with a friend …

... great for catching up with all the gossip!

What’s so good about green travel?• it helps the environment;• you get used to travelling on your own; and• you can practise your road safety skills.

During the Challenge ….

…you can record how you travel on the web-site. Have a look!
