Bikes at School

Chris Robinson —

What are the rules for use of the bike track this year and what's new?

We are very lucky to have a paved bike track running around our bottom field and 2 containers worth of good quality bikes and helmets in a range of sizes.

This year there have been some changes to the way we are using our bikes and the bike track:

* The bikes and track are open for use before school, at morning tea and at lunchtime.

* Students must wear a helmet at all times.

* Students must use appropriate sized bikes.

* Bikes are collected and returned to the bike racks beside the basketball court, as in the photo above.

* Students must do their best to stay on the track at all times and be aware of the other students using the field.

The timetable:

We have put together a timetable this year to encourage students of all ages to be more involved in using the bike track.

Students who bring their own bikes to school are allowed to use them regardless of the timetable.
