iCycle Training

Leave a comment

 

Mr McDowell and Mr Stewart organise iCycle training for our Primary 6 children each year.  This training is delivered after school from 3.30 until 4.30pm over 8 weeks commencing w/b 9th March.  This year, we have 47 children interested in taking part.  We are absolutely delighted with the level of interest but this means we will need to deliver the training in 2 groups.  Mr McDowell and Mr Stewart are happy to offer their time to lead the training on a Wednesday and a Thursday after school but we need your help to ensure it can go ahead.

Please indicate on the drop down below if you could offer your time to support our children in their iCycle training. We welcome help from parents / carers from any stage in the school.

Thank you
