New Zealand school children like school children in other countries have different ways of getting to school. Most primary school children walk to school. The small size of primary schools meant that most children lived within walking distance.
Primary schools after the first year generally are able to ride bikes. Sone did, but because of the increasing traffic, this has declined in recent years with the growing traffic, especially for primary children. We see some chidren scootering to school, which is something like walking and can be done on the sidewalk. Scooters are popular with younger children, even some who have bikes. Bikes have to use the roads while with their scooters the children can stay on the side walks.
