Walk Safely to School Day

Take part in National Walk Safely to School Day, supporting National Road Safety Week on Friday 15 May 2026.
Walk Safely to School Day also encourages positive environmental action, better use of public transport with reduced car-dependency and encourages parents and carers to walk more, reducing dangerous traffic congestion around schools.

Being active every day, including walking to school, can help make a difference for many Australians. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or carer - everyone has a role to play in helping children and young people to lead active healthy lives.
Remember, Active Kids are Healthy Kids so get planning your own Walk Safely to School Day journey for Friday 15 May 2026!
