HCC School Plans Safer Routes to Schools

Maisie Hamilton, Lauren Finch, and Layla McNally are the lucky winners of the Win a Bike organised by Hampshire County Council’s School Travel Planning Team during October and November. The two competitions asked children from across Hampshire to firstly think of a name for the dinosaur currently used as the School Travel Planning Team logo and then secondly to design logos or slogans that could be used on a range of materials such as pens, pencils, mugs and notepads. These materials would be distributed at various travel planning events and made available for schools as prizes for any travel plan activities they choose to do such as ”Walk to School Wednesdays” 

Children in 600 schools were asked to Name the dinosaur currently used as the School Travel Planning logo. The winning name was ‘Dinamo’.

Thanks goes to all that took part and special congratulations to the winners.

In the Hants County Council competion designed to promote Safe Routes to School Layla McNally from Brockhurst Junior School, Gosport, entered the following slogan.

We can skate,

We can cycle,

We can walk!

We can run!

Leave the car at home,

Saving the world is fun!

We can all be super heroes.
