Arriving at school, children received a cereal bar.
They were also presented with a certificate, which they were given in front of their classmates at assembly.
Mrs Bingham, travel plan coordinator, said: “Along with monthly walk to school badges, we try to keep the profile of sustainable transport high on our school agenda.
“There are at present a high proportion of walkers, those who scoot and cyclists which is fantastic.”
