Bikeability

Year 5 have been busy today taking part in their first day of Bikeability which is a cycle training programme. This week they have been taught in the playground and have completed the following tasks.

1) Prepare you for a journey on your bike.

2) Help check that the bicycle is ready for a journey.

3) Help you to set off, pedal, slow down and to, including looking behind, cycling one handed, turning and controlling speed.

Next week, they will be going out onto the local, quiet roads. The skills and knowledge from this course will give them the confidence for all kinds of cycling in the future and help them to understand cycle safety on the roads.
