COULD this be the biggest 'walking bus' ever? Parents, grandparents, school child­ren and toddlers all turned out to be a part of the 'giant walking bus,' from the Splash swimming pool car park, in Bude, to Stratton Primary School, on Wednesday, June 12.

The participation exceeded expectations with 73 people meeting at 8.25am in Splash car park and all walking together to school along the Pathfield bridleway.

Stratton Primary School's mass march to school was part of road safety charity Brake's annual Giant Walking Bus, joining the 104,428 children taking part across the UK.
