Walk and wheel to school this month!
Posted on 02/02/2026

Winter Walk & Wheel Month is a province-wide initiative that encourages students to travel actively throughout their school day. Join the movement this month by walking or wheeling to and from school. Whether it's for one day, a few days, or all month long!

Choosing active travel to and from school brings many benefits including:

  • Reduced traffic near school entrances, improving road safety.
  • Lower noise and air pollution from fewer cars.
  • Higher levels of physical activity among children.
  • Improved memory, attention and academic performance.

Students and families are encouraged to walk or wheel on their journey between home and school throughout the month of February.
