Walk to School Event




For once the sun was shining and it must have been solely because the Safer Communities Action Group (SCAG) , along with Communities First, Copperworks School PFA and the Neighbourhood Police Team had invited pupils and staff from Copperworks School to take part in a Walk to School Event.

Seeing the essential road works being carried out next to the school, and having just purchased new high vis vests with the SCAG logo on, (which members couldn't wait to try out), we realised that this was the ideal opportunity to try and show some of our younger members in the community that it was still ok to walk to school safely.

Walk to School events teach children road safety skills, are good for health and the environment too!

Thank you to everyone who took part and to Jelly Tots nursery for the use of the Walking Rings as ours hadn't arrived yet.

More Walk to School Events are planned in the future and we hope to work with all schools within our community.
