Detailed description (English): School on Wheels – Without Cars ✋
From 16 to 19 September 2025, our school joined the European Mobility Week. Every morning, our 5.C patrols stand in front of the school and carefully count how many cars stop, and how many children arrive by scooter, bike, or on foot.
We started on Monday with 200 cars. Just a few days later, the number of cars dropped by almost a hundred! ⬇️ Meanwhile, more and more pupils are coming by scooter, bike, and especially on foot.
Not everyone is eager to walk – many say it’s because of time ⏰. But we are happy to see that several parents have teamed up with neighbors so that more children share one car. That too helps us save the air and protect nature.
Every step counts – and we keep counting!
Detailed description (original language): Škola na kolesách – bez áut ✋
V týždni od 16. 9. do 19. 9. 2025 sa aj naša škola zapojila do Európskeho týždňa mobility. Každé ráno sa pred školou postavia naše hliadky z 5.C, ktoré trpezlivo počítajú: koľko áut zastavilo pred školou, koľko detí prišlo na kolobežke, bicykli či po svojich.
Začali sme v pondelok s 200 autami. Už o pár dní však počet áut klesol takmer o stovku! ⬇️ Naopak, pribúdajú kolobežkári, cyklisti a najmä žiaci, ktorí prichádzajú peši.
Nie všetkým sa chce chodiť pešo – vraj je to otázka času ⏰. No potešilo nás, že viacerí rodičia sa dohodli so susedmi a vozí sa viac detí jedným autom. Aj to je spôsob, ako ušetriť ovzdušie a chrániť prírodu.
Každý krok sa počíta – a my počítame ďalej!
Target group(s): pupils and parents
Objectives: The goals of our activity are:
Health – encourage students to walk to school and enjoy daily physical activity.
Environmental protection – fewer cars mean cleaner air and less noise.
Building good habits – guiding children towards independence, active lifestyles, and responsibility.
Safety around school – fewer cars near the school reduce the risk of traffic accidents.
Community spirit – walking together strengthens friendships and creates a positive school atmosphere.
Saving money – fewer car rides mean saving fuel and reducing family expenses.
