Car Swap Day Challenge
Centro is delighted to invite your school to take part in our Car Swap Day Challenge, which forms part of our Olympics-inspired competition to encourage young people to work together to achieve a goal. We have set the challenge for pupils to leave the car at home for just one day to explore and promote the various benefits of sustainable travel. This competition is an excellent project for your school or eco council to make a success. Further information about the competition is available in this introductory letter.
