STEP4SCHOOLS DAY

4 SEPTEMBER 2025

Step4Schools Day is Australia’s most fun and inclusive virtual challenge for schools! We've teamed up with Transport for NSW and are inviting kids across the country to walk or ride to school with decorated helmets, hats or sneakers on Step4Schools Day - 4 September 2025.

The rest of the day is yours. Celebrate diversity within your school community, get active, and raise funds to give babies with cerebral palsy their best start to life.

“It’s so important that we have these conversations with kids at such a young age...

There is a learned fear around what you can and cannot say, which comes a lot later in life. When you’re having these conversations at that earlier stage, it’s all curiosity.”

Adrian Szonyi, Leon's Dad
