Find out more about Street Tag for Schools in Lincolnshire.
Street Tag brings together children and families at Schools, and School staff to be physically active, by turning their streets into a virtual playground, to increase their outdoor experience in walking, running and cycling more to earn rewards.
During the Street Tag experience, participants record the distance they have walked, run or cycled by scanning virtual tags with their smartphone at various locations, watching their total distance accumulate. All that is needed to take part is the free Street Tag app.
Benefits of the initiative include:
- Increased levels of physical activity for children and their families, with the benefits to improving health this brings
- A reduction in the number of local trips/journeys made by car
- An increase in the number of trips and distances travelled by bike and foot among residents both travelling to school and outside of school
- Increased social interaction and community cohesion
- Children and families rediscover their local area and connect with local green spaces
