Environmental benefits of active travel
About this activity
NB: We're bringing together all the TfL education programs, including STARS, under one exciting new umbrella program called TfL Travel for Life. They will be the same great programs but with a new name and a new look, an easier online process, and a dedicated support team. STARS for primary schools will be renamed TfL Explorers, and STARS for secondary schools will be renamed TfL Pioneers.
Put together a lesson or assembly adapted to the needs and level of your class to teach them about the environmental benefits of active travel.
Alternatively, use the Walkit website in class to allow pupils to discover how much carbon dioxide they can stop being released by walking rather than taking the car.
This activity could be incorporated into the health benefits of active travel activity. See Resources for more inspiration and lesson ideas.
Thanks to Haringey council for sharing resources for this card.
