Abstract
In this paper we apply the ideas from recent works on Student Activity Problems in proposing a theorem on some Kirkman type problems. That is, we find that for any prime number p ≥ 3 it is possible for a school teacher to take p2 school girls on a walk each day of the p+1 days, walking with p rows of p girls each, in such a way that each pair of girls walk together in the same row on exactly one day.
