Sustrans competition week 7

week 7 10 – 17th June

What’s this week’s challenge?

Create a comic strip of your journey to school or to your favourite park. Your journey must be
done by walking, cycling, scooting or wheeling.

How to stand out

We’re looking for artistic flair and attention to detail. Why not check out some comics or graphic novels, to see how it’s done? It’s also great if you can think practically about your journey: what time do you need to set off? Do you need a helmet or a waterproof? To help you with this, we’ve got a resource in the link at the top or HERE.

There is also a Youtube video giving you some more help and ideas HERE

Don’t forget to upload your entry for a chance to win a scooter or bike.

Upload your photos and videos on Twitter, tag @sustransLondon and use #SustransActiveLondon as well as @HagueSchool
