Walking is cool at Coolangatta

Students at Coolangatta State School will be walking further than usual on Walk Safley to School Day. To increase exercise and ease congestion, parents are being encourgaed to park the car further away and walk the rest of the way.

To reward the students who participate, the P&C will be providing fresh fruit, and between 8:00 and 9:00am Destiny from Gladiators will be coming to school to help the kids celebrate their achievement.

How cool is that!
