JOURNEY TO SANTA
At Millington we are encouraging children to stay active on the journey to school this winter with Sustrans Journey to Santa Challenge!
Pupils taking part in the challenge will receive a special Journey to Santa stamp card to keep track of their active journeys to school.
How does it work?
- Each day you cycle, scoot or walk to school gets you closer to Santa!
- The challenge begin on Monday, 15th November and finishes on Friday 11th December.
- Keep your Journey to Santa stamp card in your school bag or desk and make sure you get your journey marked off each day you cycle, scoot or walk to school.
- 15 active journeys to school will get you to Santa and a chance to win a prize from Santa’s workshop!
Ditch the Dark Day 2023
When is it happening?

What happens?
- Cycle, scoot or walk to school wearing bright coloured, highly visible clothing. There will be spot prizes given out as children arrive at school in their bright colours.
Term 2 Activities
Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel inspires pupils to make active journeys to school, improve air quality in their neighbourhood and discover how these changes benefit their world.
Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is open to all primary and secondary schools in the UK, including SEN/ASN/ALN schools. It is free to take part and there are daily prizes to be won.
On each day of the challenge, schools compete to see who can get the highest percentage of their pupils walking, using a wheelchair, scooting or cycling to school. Your school’s best five days will determine your final position, but you can log journeys on all ten days if you wish.
