Northstowe pupils and students! From 18-22 May 2026 it will be WALK TO SCHOOL WEEK 🚶👭👬🚴🛴🚶🦽

All Northstowe pupils and students are encouraged to walk, wheel, cycle, scoot, or Park and Stride to school every day of the week during this time.

If your school is taking part, this year's challenge will see pupils set off on a special operation - codename "Mission Move", to complete the five-day walking challenge. On the way, pupils will meet fun and friendly secret agents as they explore the many benefits of walking or wheeling to school.

So go ahead, tell your friends, parents, and teachers about it and let's all get walking and wheeling!🚶🦽🚶🚴🛴
