Design your own School Street

A School Street is an event where the road outside a school is closed to cars at the start or end of the school day to create a happier, healthier, friendlier and safer environment. Use this Design your own School Street to have a go at designing your own School Street event with as many activities and games as you like. You can learn more by watching the video below. You'll also find more information about School Streets here.
