LOCAL students are preparing to walk, scoot or cycle to school as part of the upcoming Gannawarra VicHealth Walk to School program.
Held across the month of October, VicHealth's Walk to School program encourages local youngsters to increase their physical activity and build healthy habits for life.
"Studies show that it takes 30 days to build a habit. The longer we do something healthy, the more likely that healthy habit will stick," a VicHealth Walk to School program spokesperson said.
