Booking for this walk is now closed but you can follow the route on your own.
Kennington’s Academy pupils led a guided walk to celebrate key workers from the area and highlight the important role the school plays within their community. We displayed the full key worker flag collection from the Platinum Jubliee Pageant performance by Kinetika, for the first time in Thurrock.
Inspirational stories linked to the key worker flags were shared and the students provided a celebratory performance followed by refreshments at the school.

T100 walks are of different lengths and on different terrain. Some are mainly on footpaths, and others mainly on footpaths where ground may be uneven. If this walk doesn’t suit you, there is probably another one that will.
Please note: You need to choose walks within your capabilities and ensure that you are sufficiently fit for the grade of walk you have chosen. Due care has been exercised in organising the walks, however, Kinetika, the funders and associated partners of the project cannot accept liability for loss, accident or injury caused to any person following the routes, especially unsupervised. Participants under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
WHAT TO TAKE
Please ensure that you are properly equipped for all walks. The weather can be unpredictable so bring waterproof clothing and/or sun hats and sun cream – it’s best to be prepared for everything!
Walking boots/shoes are recommended, but otherwise please wear suitable and comfortable footwear- best to leave open-toe sandals or high heels at home.
Make sure you bring a packed lunch with you if necessary, and plenty to drink.
Toilet facilities can be accessed at Kenningtons Academy at the start or end of the walk.
We encourage you to bring face coverings with you. You will not have to wear face coverings for the duration of the walk but you may wish to wear them if you enter indoor spaces on the route, although this is optional.
