Primary students from 15 schools within the Southern Grampians have been getting active throughout October as they walk to and from school for VicHealth’s Walk to School month. Southern Grampians Shire Council is pleased to be supporting Walk to School by delivering local Walk to School activities and initiatives that support ongoing active travel, including assisting the implementation of on-going drop off points. 6 of our 15 schools participating have created a drop off point a distance away from school where kids can get dropped and walk the remaining distance together. These schools are hoping to continue the operation of these points for the remainder of term 4 2016, and hopefully into 2017!
