Active Travel and Cycle Safety in June!
As the weather (hopefully) continues to be as nice as it has been, we know there will be lots of you getting out and about. Sustrans and DfI (Department for Infrastructure) have provided us with activities and games to help us with staying safe when out on the roads, whether you are walking, cycling or scooting. There will be new activities posted each week for you.
This week there are 3 different tasks that have been saved into the Letters section of our website so please do check them out.
Road Safety Education Task: Child Cycle Safety
This week the focus is on cycle helmets – please ensure your child wears a cycle helmet every time they are riding their bicycle and that it is properly fitted and adjusted to reduce the impact of a fall or collision at slow speed.
