Reception's BIKEATHON!


What an exhilarating Friday we had in Reception class – participating in our very first school Bikeathon was a roaring (and rolling) success! Children arrived at school with bikes, scooters, and a dazzling collection of helmets all ready to start!

After some quick adjustments, buckle-ups, and a few practice laps, we all strapped on our helmets and took to the course – and what a course it was! Children whizzed their way through the school hall! Cruised around the front and back of the school grounds, and showed off their riding skills with big smiles on the playground loop. The joy and confidence on their faces said it all!

A huge thank you to all our wonderful parents and carers for ensuring every child had a helmet and a safe set of wheels. Your support helped us keep things smooth, safe, and stress-free. And thank you, too, for helping us load up scooters and bikes for what was truly a memorable event. We couldn’t have done it without you.

From first-time pedalers to seasoned scooter pros, each child gave it their all, and we are so proud of their efforts, their teamwork, and their resilience. Events like this not only build gross motor skills but also boost confidence, independence, and a great sense of fun!

With thanks and a big cheer from all of us in Reception!
