Proposed Changes Re: Active School Travel

19 October 2023

To support our strategic priorities of Nurturing Mental Health and Wellbeing and Protecting the Environment, PVNC Catholic would like to encourage more families to walk and wheel to school.

We are proposing to add an active school travel element to this directional policy. We welcome ideas and feedback with respect to adopting active school travel elements in this directional policy.

Why are we proposing this change?

Active school travel has been shown to help students reach necessary daily physical activity targets and arrive at school with a clear mind, ready to learn. In addition, we recognize that decreasing traffic congestion around our schools will create a safer school zone and improved air quality.
