Record breaking Walking Bus

11th June 2009

Dear parents

As a school, we agreed to take part in the Record Breaking Walking Bus at 10am on Wednesday 17th June 2009 which is exactly the same time as hundreds of other schools.

Tragically, a child is hurt on UK roads every 20 minutes. By taking part of in this event we want to raise awareness of road safety. The event is organized by BRAKE, the road safety charity.

We will then hopefully be part of breaking a world record by being among more than 100,000 children all walking in a crocodile of twos (holding hands), with adults accompanying them, on a 500m safe route around the school site.


This event is for all pupils from Nursery to year 6. All school staff will be walking with the children. On the reverse of this letter is the route we will taking around the school site.

If you are interested in joining us for this event please see your child’s class teacher or myself.

While we are taking part in this event please note that the school office will be closed during this time.

Thank you for your co-operation


Yours sincerely


Mrs. A. Lipski
Head Teacher
