Lismore Primary School had a 'cycle day' for P6 & P7 children - reported in the Craigmillar Chronicle. This included basic bike checks - most bikes need their tyres blown up! A skills training course was provided by Mark Young of Scottish Cycling. The school is thinking about Cycle Training and teaching the children basic bike maintenance. An application for funding for a Workshop in a Cupboard was turned down (money was awarded to the Venchie instead). |
