Friday, May 23 was National Walk to School Day. Senior Constable Foessel pictured with two students as the Elanora Primary School Adopt a Cop, took part in assisting a group of students to cross the busy streets. Several groups took part in the walk from various locations in Palm Beach and Elanora.
Walk Safely to School Day aims to encourage each Australian child to lead a healthier, more active lifestyle by including a walk at the beginning and end of each day to achieve at least 60 minutes of daily exercise to help prevent obesity and other health problems.
The event also promotes reduced car-dependency, greater use of public transport, cleaner air, improved diets and road safety to primary school children throughout Australia.
