The Primary School St. Benedict on Malta was participating with 140 children.
They established a Walking School Bus project that involves all 140 students attending the school. They invite all pupils to walk to school accompanied by one or more adults. Trained parents or volunteers from the community take turns walking the children to school through a structured route with meeting points.
Up to now they collected 26,040 Green Footprints and will keep ZOOMing.
The project Coordinator says:
"Nowadays, fewer children are walking to school and more children are at risk of becoming overweight. Changing the attitude of children and parents requires innovative solutions that are safe and enjoyable. Adopting a walking school bus programme can be both."
Fis-sena skolastika 2011 – 2012, l-iskola Primarja ta’ Ħal Safi se tieħu sehem fi proġett li jissejjaħ “Walking School Bus”.
Dan il-proġett se jinvolvi l-istudenti kollha li jattendu l-iskola. Kull student se jiġi mistieden jiġi l-iskola bil-mixi ma’ adult(i). Ġenituri u voluntiera mħarrġa mill-komunità, se jimxu mat-tfal lejn l-iskola minn rotta strutturata. Illum il-ġurnata, huma ftit dawk it-tfal illi jmorru l-iskola bil-mixi u ħafna tfal huma fir-riskju li jiżdiedu fil-piż. Biex isir tibdil fl-attitudni tal-ġenituri u tat-tfal irridu noffru soluzzjonijiet innovattivi li huma sikuri u fl-istess ħin pjaċevoli. Il-proġett tal-Walking School Bus jista’ jinkludi dawn iż-żewġ kwalitajiet.
