Why HandsUp?
HandsUp! counts help schools measure their progress and support more students to become physically active. The Ride2School HandsUp! system is a key reporting tool used by schools in our program.
- Schools can measure the number of students riding and walking to school
- The information collected can be used to advocate for improved walking and riding in the local community
- Provides schools access to Ride2School tools
The Golden Wheel is awarded each term to the school with the highest average active travel rate. Don’t forget to enter those HandsUp! Counts for a chance to put your name in the Golden Wheel history books!
