What is the Walking Bus?
The Walking Bus is the newest form of school transport. The Bus is made up of a group of children, walking with at least two volunteers eg, parents, midday supervisors or learning support assistants.
One volunteer acts as the 'driver', who leads the way and the other acts as the 'conductor' at the rear. The Walking Bus follows a set route, stopping at agreed pick-up points or 'bus stops' in the neighbourhood.
The benefits of a Walking Bus
Children learn good road sense.
It provides a safer and environmentally friendly way for children to travel to school.
It encourages walking, which in turn reduces traffic and pollution near to school.
Children’s general fitness is improved through daily exercise.
It promotes social interaction and independence.
