Bikeability Level 1
Today we brought our bikes to school and spent the day in the playground developing our riding skills. Thanks to Lynsey Murphy our Active Schools Coordinator for helping us complete this with Mrs Ross.
We practised the skills needed to develop basic cycle control skills and to gain the confidence to use our bikes more often.
Level 1 outcomes:
1. Demonstrate understanding of safety equipment and clothing
2. Carry out a simple bike check
3. Get on and off the bike without help
4. Start off and pedal without help
5. Stop without help
6. Ride along without help for roughly one minute or more
7. Make the bike go where they want
8. Use gears (where present)
9. Stop quickly with control
10.Manoeuvre safely to avoid objects
11.Look all around, including behind, without loss of control
12.Control the bike with one hand
We all showed excellent confidence and completed all the outcomes and were delighted to receive our Bikeability Level 1 Certificates.
