Introduction

Dear Parent/Guardian:

In 2010-2012 Greenway School went through the process of developing a School Travel Plan (click to view plan). Funding has been provided by the City of Winnipeg to support the updating of this plan, and to identify actions that will help more students safely walk, cycle or otherwise use active transportation for the school journey wherever possible.

The benefits of more students making the school journey on foot include:
• Increased safety
• Improved health
• Arriving alert and ready to learn
• Less stress, greater happiness
• Less pollution
• Reduced traffic congestion at and around the school

Through School Travel Planning we will support concerned parents/guardians and teachers to will work with municipal, school district and public health officials to deal with the issues that stop our students from using active transportation.

Every single family’s input is important to the success of this project. When we know what school travel choices you’re making and why you’re making them, we can ensure the travel plan considers the needs of all our students. Please take 5 to 10 minutes to complete the following survey with the eldest child who attends this school.

If you have any questions about the survey or want to be more involved in the STP project, please contact Shoni Madden at shoni@greenactioncentre.ca or 204-925-3773.

Thank you,
Shoni Madden & Jamie Hilland
