1st Class Bike Day
1st Class Bike Day
1st Class had an enjoyable mornings exercise recently.
They brought their bikes into school and cycled through an obstacle course in our schoolyard. They also navigated our school track very well on their bikes.
Also, Bike Day plays a very important part in promoting road safety awareness in our school.
Well done everybody on a fun morning of exercise.
Bike Week is a celebration and promotion of all that’s great about bikes and cycling. Held over an extended week each year, with bike-themed events organised by local authorities, community groups, and cycling groups throughout Ireland.
Cycling has much to offer people of every age and ability, so get on your bike and join the fun during this year’s Bike Week or anytime.
