Level 1 Bikeability (Session 21/22)
Last session many of our pupils completed Bikeability level 1! All pupils grew in confidence over the sessions. They practiced getting pedal ready, keeping a safe distance from the cyclist in front, balancing, stopping safely and turning left and right in the school playground. All pupils had a great time. This year, Level 1 will run for our Primary 5 pupils in Term 4.
