Sciennes Bike Club Adventures
P3 Cycle Skills/Learn to Ride a Bike Sessions
Primary 3 children will be bringing their bikes and helmets to school next week. They will learn how to fit their helmets correctly, have a shot at pumping up their tyres, learn how to start and stop safely, learn how to control and manoeuvre their bikes, have some fun on our very own skills course and for those children who haven't quite mastered the art of bike riding we will be helping them achieve their goal. The sessions will be led by qualified cycle trainers who have worked with Sciennes' children for a number of years.
Bike Curious Family Workshop
Is your family bike curious? Would you like to get cycling with your children but don’t know where to start? Or you want to move from baby seat to trailer or tagalong? Our workshop at Sciennes Primary School will help you get pedalling with children on board!
Childcare – and hence family cycling – is more than just a woman’s responsibility but we’ve added this event onto the wider day because we thought it would be helpful for everyone (and it was exactly the sort of thing we would have wanted ourselves). So this day is for everyone, including those without any kids yet of their own.
We’ll have experienced ‘cycling families’ on hand to give you some advice, and show you what you’ll need to get your child attached to your bike safely. You’ll be able to try out a range of equipment, from both front and back mounted baby seats to trailers and tag-alogs. There will be a cycle ride tutor on hand to help you master your riding technique if your child is old enough to ride independently and a Dr Bike to check over any bikes you bring along.
There will also be some bike friendly crafts to try out and plenty of caffeine and cake for anyone that needs it!
We’ll be heading off round the Meadows for a family bike ride at 12 – come and join us!
