The first edition of the Bike to School Challenge took place in May 2022 and several classes of the schools involved in the project, from Italy, Romania and North Macedonia, have actively participated, having fun and using sustainable means for their daily journeys and beyond.
The Bike to School Challenge is a playful 1 month competition among European school classes, in which the pupils can earn points going to school by bike or on foot instead of using a car, thus contributing to a better urban environment. We are so amazed! Together 394 primary school students from our partner schools from the three countries collected more than 20.000km of sustainable mobility of which more than 6.000 km were done by bike! All data and routes were recorded thanks to the use of the digital platform that was developed by the partners in the months prior to the competition.
Below in the charts are the statistics and results.
Children were very happy to participate in this challenge and during the joint staff training event in Romania, the winning Romanian class was awarded. The award ceremony in Italy will instead take place during the multiplier event on the Friday 16 th September in Rome. And now?
We are so excited since we are already collecting new memberships from
European classes and schools that are ready to participate in the second edition of the challenge to be held in May 2023! If your school or class is interested in participating do not hesitate to contact us!
