Term 4 Ride to School Day - 17 November 2023

Friday of Week 6 (17 November) will be our Term 4 Whole School Ride to School Day. It is an initiative supported by the government to encourage both students and their parents to be more active and healthy in their daily commute to school and work. Something that the extra daylight and fine weather makes much easier to achieve.

St Jude’s will be participating with a whole school walk and ride to school morning on the day. While we encourage riding, we also welcome any wheels and walkers too. We will have teachers stationed from 8:10am at the locations marked on the map. They will wait and meet students and parents and depart those locations by 8:20am to walk and ride along the marked routes to school.

At school, the groups will be met with some great tunes pumping, a fruit station and a raffle ticket to go in the draw for some prizes at the end of the day.

Special to this term, we will have some of the team at the Trek Store in Phillip to provide free bike safety checks and simple safety maintenance on any bike present in the morning, providing a list of further maintenance recommendations beyond what they do on the morning.

It’s going to be a great morning and we look forward to seeing as many people as possible getting involved in the action.
