June Operation Pedalnation Picnic Station Meditation Oh we are getting carried away here, stop. We will join in with National Bike to School week and try to get as many as possible cycling for the whole month of June. Watch a bike safety video here for kids 5 to 9 to get ready now! Here is another video forBicycle Safer Journeys for age 10 - 14!
May and June travel initiatives will make a big difference to our carbon count. We will ask people to
PARK AND PARK.
or even to PARK, PARK AND PARK.
What is that?
Some brainstorming thoughts...
Here is another idea; we have been looking at ad campaigns. We saw one in town,
Wear Heels to Work in aid of the Hospice. We have a better idea for teachers we have talked about in the Junior staffroom...;
Wear Flats to Work on WOW day.
Also the teachers could park at one building and walk to the other one. They could have meetings on the way just like the ForestAre group have walking lunchtime meetings. It is the newest thing in offices. Also people get good ideas when they walk.
Maybe we could have a prize for teachers who park and stride. We could download the posters from Operation Transformation for parking and walking.
Well to come to school, we will ask those who have to come a long way to drive as far as the park and then walk through the park to school. Pay particular attention on your way into school to notice our school WildAREness areas and count the wildlife you see in it. Take a moment to breathe and enjoy the nature to start your day.
You may enjoy downloading the app STOP, BREATHE AND THINK and listening to their 3 minutes of forest birdsong, "Being in the Moment". Ah. We are trying this app out in school currently, it is considered very calming.
