5th and 6th class partnered up with Dave and Helen from Bike Heroes. They had 5 lessons where they went through simple obstacle courses to learning about the parts of the bicycle to road safety to going for a cycle on the road and putting all they had learned into practice. It was definitely an action packed few weeks!
Skipping Showcase and our Skipathon!
To bring both our Active Schools Week and our Skip Around Europe challenge to a close, we held two events to mark the end of them. We held a Skipping Showcase where members of all classes could show off their new skills learned during our skipping challenge. We also had a Skipathon where one student represented their class in a straight up shootout to see who could skip for the longest!
