Year 5 Bikeability

Year 5s have loved Bikeability!

The last few weeks have seen each Year 5 class have the opportunity to complete a week-long course run by Bikeability instructors. The children were able to bring their own bike to school or they could borrow one. Each Bikeability course began with pupils learning to do safety checks on their bikes, which included an A, B, C check on air, brakes and chain and cogs.

After safety checks, the children learned how to handle their bike in the school playground before they were then taken out on local residential roads to learn about road safety and how to position themselves whilst riding the road.

All the children have completed the course, showing the instructors that they are confident and safe. Although they will still need some support, we wish them well on their cycling journey!
