Join the Active School Travel program

Active School Travel (AST) is a three-year, award-winning Brisbane City Council program designed to educate and motivate students, parents and teachers to reduce car use and actively travel to and from school.

The free program is for primary schools who want healthier, more active students and parents; greater road safety awareness among students and families, safer streets and reduced traffic congestion at the school gate. 

Find out why your school should be involved in the AST program and what you would receive as a participating school.
