he Bickered participates in the nationwide campaign days. Until 29 September, children should be given more safety in road traffic, self-confidence should be encouraged and the daily traffic collapse in front of primary schools and kindergartens should be counteracted. The Bickered is also involved in this.
During the days of the event, all pupils are called upon to master the way to school without “parents’ taxis”. The same applies, of course, to all parents or accompanying persons.
Students meet at three stops
To this end, the Bickered has considered a very special concept: there will be reporting stations at three fixed “breakpoints” in the vicinity of the school. There, all students who are on foot can pick up a registration stamp every morning. The wearing of a safety vest gives even an extras stamp in the specially prepared bonus card. At the end of the campaign, the school class can collect the most stamps and each class has the chance to win one of the three coveted class winners’ cups.
Support by teachers and parents
“Thanks to the support of the entire teaching staff and many parents, we are able to carry out this great activity,” says Angelika, the school’s vice-president. “It is very important to us to counteract the daily traffic collapse before school by means of active prevention measures.
This is the ideal opportunity. Especially in terms of safety for children, so many cars are a high risk to the day-to-day schooling, “the Rector reports.”We hope that as many students as possible will be able to take part in the school path and have fun on foot after these days.”
With certificate and medal
After the end of the campaign days, each participant in reflective vest of the Bickered receives a certificate and a medal. These should remind you how much fun it is to be on the road. Whether alone or in the group: movement makes you mobile and brings momentum into the morning.
