National Bike Week 2015 will take place from 13th to 21st June. To coincide with this and as part of raising awareness and increasing road safety, the pupils in 5th/6th Classes took part in ‘Bikeability’ Training Level 1 this afternoon.

All pupils were encouraged to wear helmets and taught the importance of signalling and taking care on the road. They also had a slow bike race and had to cycle through cones and practise an emergency stop.

The training was organised by Cavan Sports Partnership and supported by Cavan County Council.
