This week saw the official launch of our Bike It programme. In collaboration with TfL and Sustrans we were lucky enough to be selected to become a Bike It School. We will continue to work with children, families, staff and the local community to improve access and skills so that families are cycling more. Jo, our Bike It Champion, led a healthy breakfast session for our cycling and scooting families to introduce herself to our families and explain the programme. Many of our children make wonderful progress using our balance bikes but we want all children to have access and improved opportunities to learn to cycle on the balance bikes and two-wheeler pedal bikes. Jo will support staff to run balance bike sessions, two-wheeler pedal bike sessions, family cycle rides and bike maintenance classes. Rachel Keeling will also have access to more resources to facilitate this - we will definitely need an additional bike and scooter store as ours is already full! Two families have borrowed balance bikes and helmets this weekend - let's hope the sun shines for them!
