Last week, we had instructors from Cycle Confident lead sessions for Year 5 to help them increase their confidence when cycling on the road. The children completed Bikeabilty Level 2 where they learned to:

• Cycle safely and responsibly
• Identify and respond to hazards
• Start and stop on-road journeys
• Maintain suitable riding positions
• Share the road with others and communicate with other road users
• Comply with signals, signs and road markings
• Manage risk when cycling
• Negotiate junctions

We hope the children will continue to use these skills outside of school and can't wait for Bike Around the Borough in the Summer! 

If you or your child would like to learn how to cycle or improve your cycling skills, Cycle Confident provide free sessions for those who live or work in Hackney. To find out more, please visit their website which can be found here.
