Pupils at St James the Apostle Primary School will have a safe place to leave their bicycles after the school was given a parking rack for 20 cycles by Bicycle Network in recognition of its commitment to healthy living.
The Hoppers Crossing school regularly takes part in the network’s Ride2School days and encourages pupils such as Arden to make active travel a normal part of the school day.
Bicycle Network’s ‘behaviour change’ general manager, Tess Allaway, said the school had “walked the walk”.
“We know that childhood is the critical window for creating lifelong active habits and building resilience. St James the Apostle school is getting its students off on the right foot.”
