TfL Travel for Life is an accreditation programme supporting the next generation of Londoners to travel towards a brighter, safer and more sustainable future.
We are excited to announce that TVJS has joined over 1,500 schools in London and is part of the solution.
Last academic year, we have gained a Bronze certificate. This year, we would like to build on this achievement and make a difference to our school community!
Our aim is to improve safety around the school, make journeys to and from school more sustainable, promote life skills and encourage children to make the right choices.
We would love to engage the parents and carers to be part of this programme. If you are interested, please, contact Mrs Padayachee via Class Dojo.

TfL Explorers Ambassadors Projects |

| Dear Parents and Carers,
We wanted to inform you that the TFL ambassadors are dedicated to ensuring everyone’s safety during pick-up times. They have noticed that the area near the Y4,5 and 6 exit gate tends to become overcrowded, which can create potential safety concerns. To address this, the ambassadors have designed and put up signs to guide both parents and children on the best routes to take when coming in and leaving the premises. These signs were installed (by the ambassadors themselves) on Wednesday to help reduce congestion and improve the flow of people. We kindly ask for your cooperation in following the signs to keep the area safe and organised. Thank you for your understanding and support!
On behalf of TfL ambassadors, Mrs Padayachee |

TfL Seminar – Wednesday 5th March 2025 |
|
| TfL ambassadors from our school had a privilege of attending a TfL Spring seminar in Stratford. Below is one of our ambassador’s experience:
On the TFL trip, where we had the privilege of meeting other TFL ambassadors, I enjoyed learning ways to engage our school in ‘active travel.’ I also enjoyed discussing with peers how to make it fun for people to travel without harming the environment. During one of the sessions, we made a plan to create a competition for our school. We shared with other schools how our shoes ‘feel’ when they are stationary. Overall, I liked the trip since it gave me the opportunity to make my school a better, safer place. |

ROAD SAFETY WEEK – 17th-23rd November 2024On Tuesday, 19th November, we held a special Road Safety Week assembly. This assembly highlighted the devastating impact of the incidents, not just on those directly involved, but on their families and loved ones. The theme is ‘Super-heroes’. Everyone, who helps make journeys safer and healthier or helps care for someone after a crash, is a road safety hero. In order to prevent the accidents, we have decided to launch a competition – ‘Brighten your bag’. |

Competition time!
Brighten your bag…
(…to make yourself more visible, and therefore safer, during the darker winter months)
By decorating your bag with reflective materials, the children can be seen more clearly by pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers on their journeys to and from school.
Use anything reflective and bright that will make your bag stand out.
Have you already got a bright bag? Why not to design another one on the template below. (Please, ask TFL ambassadors for a copy.)
You can bring your brightened bags to school by Wednesday 11th December when the TFL ambassadors will pick the best ones.
Good luck!
We are looking forward to seeing you all your brightastic bags!
