Congratulations to the year 6 children who passed Level 3 Bikeability.  This is an intense practical cycling 2 day course run by Telford and Wrekin Road Safety.   Bikeability is a national standard cycle training programme designed to give cyclists the skills and confidence to cycle in modern road conditions.

Well done everyone!

Cycling Together

Why not start cycling together? Riding bikes is a great family activity

and you can help

support your child with their Bikeability training at the same time.

Choose a quiet place away from traffic – the park is perfect, and start by practicing looking back over your shoulder and giving hand

signals whilst maintaining control of the bike. You could also help by showing them how to select the correct gear and use the brakes with control. Simply getting out and about on 2 wheels will improve your child’s confidence.
