Cycle Safe - September 2023

The boys and girls in Fifth class have been learning all about safe cycling with Richard and Natasha from Cycle Safe Ireland. All the children are well able to cycle but have been put through their paces regarding setting up their bicycles and helmets safely, accelerating and braking carefully, signalling and learning how to safely turn left and right at a junction. 

We also completed an indoor theory session where the children explored some basic rules of the road, what dangers to look out for while out cycling. what personal protective equipment they should wear and the dangers of cycling without a helmet.

Have a look at some pictures from one of our outdoor sessions. You might recognise some faces.
