About this activity

Suitable for all schools and nurseries.

NB: We’re bringing together all the TfL education programmes, including STARS, under one exciting new umbrella programme called TfL Travel for Life. They will be the same great programmes, but with a new name and a new look, easier online process and dedicated support team. STARS for primary schools will be renamed TfL Explorers. STARS for secondary schools will be renamed TfL Pioneers.

We know that your schools and nurseries are creative places and your pupils, staff and communities are bursting with ideas of how to get young London moving!

This is your chance to share your school’s own original cycling activity, different to anything else already listed on the TFL Travel for Life website. Use innovative ideas & make it a reality. Engaging pupils to interact and consider change, encouraging creativity and making it fun.

For example, organising a themed cycling party or planning a sponsored cycle challenge to raise money for extra bike sheds.

Tell your story now and Good Luck!
