Year 5/6 learn to be safe out riding

On Thursday Yr 5 and 6 took part in a Community Cycle Skills Programme called IBike. It is a Selwyn District's cycle skills education programme that is run in partnership with Selwyn Sports Trust.

The children participated in the programme learning about safe cycling skills, how to ride with confidence and the use of basic road rules.

Their aim is to inspire young tamariki to enjoy cycling and understand the benefits of active recreation around Selwyn, whilst also striving to reduce vehicles on Selwyn roads.

The group enjoyed the limbo activity and many were challenged by being able to ride slowly.
