We’re the Junior Travel Ambassadors (JTA). With our shining JTA badges and bundles of enthusiasm, we’re the pupils who think about road safety and transport! We are from all year groups across the school to ensure we represent the whole school.
The Junior Travel Ambassador scheme is run by Transport for London. We represent our school at Redbridge Borough meetings.
Every Friday we meet to share ideas and opinions. During each meeting we discuss our progress with current projects. We also plan future projects, organise prizes for competitions, and select the winners of existing competitions!
The role of a JTA is to encourage a greener approach to transport. We like to see our friends and fellow pupils walking to school wherever possible. Walking to and from school is important, but we also want pupils of Churchfields Junior School to be safe on the roads of London. We work with our school to create a safer environment. We also have a lot of fun running competitions to encourage a safe and sensible attitude to the roads of London.
Since the Junior Travel Ambassador Scheme started in September 2014, we have:
We have lots of projects happening at the moment, and planned for the future. These include:
