Yr 5 Bikeability

RE: Year 5 Bikeability

Dear Parents,

Traditionally we have offered the children chance to take part in a Bikeability programme and we would like to offer this to the children again.

Bikeability is a safety awareness course for children who wish to travel around on their bicycles safely.

Potentially there may be opportunities for your child to travel, for the remaining of this school year and whilst in Year 6, on their bikes. Therefore travelling safely, with the participation and passing of this course.

The training will take place on our school yard and local roads to the school and the children will need a bicycle, a helmet and will need to have a bicycle which is in secure working order.

Children will be able to store their bicycles securely and safely at school during the day.

At this stage we do not know which dates we will have the course available to us, but we would like an idea of numbers, so we know what to book. The course has a devised timetable to deliver a whole Bikeability course in 2 days with only 12 children per course.

If you would like your child to take part in a Bikeability course, please sign up your child via your ParentPay account, which will close on Friday 13th January. I will then write to you again in due course to inform you of your child’s sessions and for you to complete the relevant consent forms.

Many thanks

Mr B Moody
