Get on the bus for these memories as we mark International Walk To School Week in Sunderland

Walking is a great way to socialise and breathe in fresh air – and that’s what these children were doing on their way to school.

The world is marking International Walk To School Week this week and we are celebrating with images from the Sunderland Echo archives.

Each photo shows children in their walking bus or walking with friends as they headed to the classroom.

Can you spot someone you know? Take a look and then get in touch to tell us more.

St Helen's School pupils are pictured in their walking bus 15 years ago. Remember this?
