Scottish Cycle Training Scheme – P6

Starting on Friday 20 April 2018, we will be running the Scottish Cycle Training Scheme, Bikeability 2 for our P6 pupils. This will take place every Friday, during the school day, for 6 weeks.

All bicycles have to be checked and made roadworthy before training begins and children are asked to bring their bikes to school on Tuesday 20th March, to be checked. This will be carried out by an organisation called “Dr Bike” and your child will be informed of any repairs/maintenance, if necessary, after the check. Please note that a bike lock is advisable as we cannot take responsibility for security whilst the bikes are parked in the school grounds.

Pupils must remember to wear a helmet when riding their bikes and pupils cannot ride their bike in the school playground, to ensure the safety of all pupils.

If you would like your child to participate in the training, please return the slip below by Friday 23rd February 2018.

With the Cycle Training Scheme due to start on Friday 20 April, we are still looking for parent helpers to come along to the sessions to help with the organisation (please note you will not be asked to cycle). The sessions will take place every week, for 6 weeks, from 11am to 12pm. Please complete the section below if you can help at any, or all, of the sessions and return to school by Friday 23rd February 2018.
