Wyndham council has introduced an ‘Active Travel to School’ program to encourage physical activity.
Bellbridge primary and Stella Maris Catholic Primary school have placed “park & walk” signs at parking spaces within close distance from each school where parents can drop their kids off, or walk them the rest of the way.
In a Facebook post, Wyndham Council said the signs are a guide to parents and guardians that the space is a “suitable” place to park the car.
“Active travel is an important way of improving health and wellbeing, social interaction and reducing car dependency.”
