What an amazing experience for our P3 classes! It was a focused approach to developing cycling skills in small groups with an experienced trainer. Now the children understand the need to move at a slower pace and still keep their balance. By gaining better control they can put their hand out to signal a turn. When their bike is kept straight they have greater control. They discovered that toes on the pedals gives more power.
In addition it was lovely to see one or two children make the transition from using stabilisers to cycling independently.
Many thanks to Angela Christie for her knowledgeable input and for organising this remarkable event and the rest of the team.
