Bicycle Network Victoria: Teachers
Great Ideas
We have pulled together resources to give your school a solution to any problem it may face in getting more students walking and riding.
Getting over the weather
"It's too hot...It's too cold...It's raining"....We have some great strategies to minimise the weather's impact on walking and riding to school and to avoid hearing these common weather excuses.
Getting the wheels turning to make riding 'normal'
Students can be easily influenced by peers and what appears to be 'cool' and or acceptable. We have strategies and tools that will help get your school started and make walking and riding not only acceptable but, a 'normal' part of your school culture.
Parent Incentives
Parent's can be one of the biggest barriers to students walking and riding. Check out the tools and strategies available to overcome parental concerns and lack of motivation.
