This week our class had it’s third Bike ed session. This time we learned about passing bike/ scooter riders and pedestrians safely by ringing our bell or calling out. We love each session and the new skills we’re focussing on.

Bike Ed lessons begin
Here’s 2 videos of our session.
Today our class had their first bike riding lesson with the Bike Ed teachers.
Our first session included:
- the rules of Bike ed to keep us safe
- safety lessons – why we wear bike helmets and some basic road safety tips
- fitting our helmets properly
- learning how to got on our bikes properly – opposite side to the chain
- how to use our rear brakes safely – if we use our front wheel hand brakes we could flip over the handle bars
- riding at different speeds
We had lots of fun and 3 of our students had a really successful day – in 1 lesson they’ve learned to ride without their training wheels!! What a great achievement for them.
Check out the Craigburn Primary School’s Facebook page for some photos from our session and here’s some more photos.
Our lessons will continue every Thursday for the next 3 weeks.
What do you think we’ll be learning about in our future lessons?
