Walk To School Week

Have you heard?  Walking to school is cool - very cool.  It’s great exercise, it’s eco-friendly and it’s a whole lot of fun!

Jackman is hosting our very first Walk To School Week! October 11 - 14, 2016.   It’s a week to celebrate walking to school and to encourage more kids and families to get involved. 

So, walk to school a little bit early each morning so you can participate in these special activities…

Tuesday morning… Stickers!  Walkers will receive a special sticker to celebrate the beginning of ‘Walk To School’ Week!  
Wednesday morning… It’s Wacky Wednesday!   Walk to school wearing a hat today - the wackier the better.   We can’t wait to see what you’re wearing.  We’ll be standing by with cameras to snap pics of all the wacky walkers.
Thursday morning… Sidewalk Art!  Jackman’s Eco Team will be scattered around the block.  They will have sidewalk chalk to share with you.  Draw a picture or write a ‘Walk to School’ message on the sidewalk on your way to school this morning.
Friday morning… Fruit Snacks!  Walk to school this morning and we’ll have a fresh fruit snack waiting for you.  There’s nothing better than fresh fruit.  It’s a healthy snack and garbage free too.

Come on everybody…  let’s get walking!  Walking to school has never been better!!!
