This week, the children in Year 5 and 6 had the opportunity to sign up and take part in a bike awareness course. The children learnt how to check if their bike is in roadworthy condition, bike and handling skills in the playground and if they were deemed to be confident, they learnt how to safely ride a bike on the local roads. Each child has now also been awarded a certicate for completing the course.
