About this activity

Suitable for all schools and nurseries.     

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 smarter driving activities, different to anything else already listed on the TFL Travel for Life website.

This is an opportnuity to get creative! DFor example: pupils can create a smarter driving pack for their parents/carers to complete with glittery diagrams showing how to reduce congestion around the school gates or your staff sign a collective pledge to adopt smarter driving habits.
