Walk Safely to School Day, originally scheduled for 15 May 2020 has been postponed due to the impact of COVID-19.  We will update this page when the new event date has been confirmed.

Sunshine Coast Council promotes this annual event to schools in the region and provides prizes to encourage student participation. 

Walking to school regularly is beneficial to children's health and wellbeing. It helps them to be more physically active, independent and confident. It also helps to reduce traffic problems around schools and teaches children about road safety.
