Active Travel

Getting to Stoborough CE Primary School

 

Factoring in how your child/ren will be travelling to school is an important thing to consider. At Stoborough Primary School, we encourage children to travel actively by walking, cycling and scooting to school for all or a part of their journey. This benefits their physical and mental health. Fewer families travelling to school by car will reduce congestion and help to improve air quality outside the school gates, making a safer and more pleasant environment for all to enjoy. 

 

Benefits of active travel

  • Build physical activity into the family’s daily routine to boost mental health and well-being, whilst benefiting the environment. 
    Your children will arrive at school more alert and relaxed, knowing they are helping their world.
  • Fewer cars mean cleaner air and safer roads
    You experience far lower pollution levels when on a bike or walking than if you travel inside a car.  
  • Increase road safety awareness and boost independence
    Cycling and walking to school prepares your children to become more independent travellers and creates good habits for their active adult life. 

Park and stride

Stoborough Primary School is surrounded by residential properties. On street parking is limited directly around the school. We understand that some parents and guardians may need to drive to school. If doing so, please park respectfully. There is free parking available at village hall, strictly at drop off and pick up times only, and we encourage parents to make use of the free parking available on residential streets a little further away, in Stoborough or in Wareham.
