Tregadillett pupils complete cyclewise course: Nine year 6 children from Tregadillett CP school have taken part recently in a cyclewise course, led by instructor PCSO Sharon Chinn and supported by school teachers Alison Healy and Mikaela Cook.
The course, which ran for six sessions, is designed to make young riders aware of some of the dangers of riding their bikes on the road and recognise the standard hand signals and manoeuvres that other road users would expect.
Many local residents in the village community commented that it was great to see the youngsters being trained to ride safely as they witness many 'near misses' and dangerous stunts taking place on the roads.
The school is hoping to offer this course again to the year 6 children next year, following up the road safety aspects with the younger children in the school.
Luckily all the participants passed safely - even the teachers!
