Over the course of five weeks, 5th Class pupils engaged in cycle safety training with Simon from Atlantic Sports Coaching. The children learned how to ensure their bicycle is safe, the rules of the road, starting and stopping, road positioning, shoulder checking and turning left and right. In addition, they availed of some on-road training. The emphasis of this course was on safety through the control of the bike and an awareness of the surroundings. It was very beneficial for the pupils and we hope it has equipped them with skills for life.
