Great to go to celebrate the 40 volunteers who make Walking SA tick and the many many volunteers who our 21 Bushwalking clubs rely on. Great photo of ace volunteer Cherie Rothery with Rhiannon Pearce MP comparing their clothing!

Today is National Walk Safely to School Day.

Walking, riding or scooting to school helps children arrive active, focused and ready for the day.

If you’re driving near schools today:
• Slow down
• Stay alert
• Watch for children near crossings, buses and parked cars

Safer streets support healthier and more active communities.
