Year 3/4 Learn to Ride

At Broadford, we are proud of the way that we promote cycling and road safety awareness to our children.

For the past five years, as a school we have organised Bikeability workshops for our year 5 and 6 children. Before Christmas, we had a very successful Bike and Scooter day for our Yr 1 and 2 children.

NOW…. our Year 3 and 4 children, who already own bikes, will be given the opportunity to take part in a ‘Learn to Ride’ programme. This will be the ideal time to ditch those stabilisers!  If your child lacks a bit of confidence or is a bit wobbly going around corners – this workshop would benefit them immensely.  

With 150 children in Yr 3 and 4, we suspect this workshop will be oversubscribed, so the places will go on a first come first serve basis. However, if your child is unsuccessful the first time, we will be running another workshop in the Summer term.

Please remember in order to give your child the best chance to learn ride, you will need to make sure that their bikes are in good condition and tyres are pumped up. 

Remember No Stabilisers and safety helmets are essential.

Our first workshop will take place on Tuesday 21st March 2017, if you would like your child to take part in this valuable learning activity, please complete the slip the children have received today and return to Miss Cook by Friday 3rd March.
