National Walk Safely to School Day – 16 May 2025

Get ready to lace up your sneakers and step into action on National Walk Safely to School Day, happening on Friday, 16 May 2025. This special day is all about promoting safe, active travel for students, and it’s a fantastic opportunity for schools to host fun events that encourage physical activity and foster healthy travel habits.

As part of the effort to boost physical activity and raise awareness about road safety, National Walk Safely to School Day offers schools a chance to get creative with engaging activities. Whether it’s organising a walking school bus, hosting a group walk, setting up a park-and-walk initiative, or simply encouraging families to leave the car at home for the day—there are so many ways to celebrate.

Planning an event at your school? Be sure to check out our Event Guide to help you get started and ensure your day is a success.

To make the day even more exciting, consider running a banner design competition! Plus, you can use Your Move reward points to print the winning design and promote the event in style.

Don’t forget to visit the Your Move Rewards Shop, where you can redeem points for fun prizes! Grab some cool Your Move crew socks, knee-high socks, bucket hats, or water bottles for just 10 points. Plus, check out our range of ‘walking’ items, including the popular “I Love Walking” badges and stickers, a footprint stamp, and a variety of walking-themed books.

We can’t wait to hear your stories and see how you celebrated National Walk Safely to School Day. Share your experiences on the Your Move website!
