5th Class Girls Bike Lessons

Add caption


Fifth Class girls have been doing bike lessons with a man called Mr. Bike. The first day he was talking about the M check (How to check a bike) and also what type of clothes to wear while cycling. The next class was about steering and control. Mr. Bike brought in fifteen bikes and helmets to share amongst the girls. They all went to Pembroke Hockey Club and cycled beside the pitch. First they had to cycle around the cones and then the other way, twice each. Second they had to cycle really fast towards Mr. Bike and when you were half a meter away from him he pointed a direction behind his back and then they suddenly had to go that way. This was for any sudden things that might happen when you are cycling on a road. The saying is `expect the unexpected’. By the end of the sixth class I bet the girls will probably be really amazing cyclists!                                                Catherine McCaffrey.

Sweet, Stylish Vikings? Surely not!

3rd Class Girls did History projects. They chose from Vikings, Normans and  Ancient Egyptians. They had to make a 3D construction to accompany their booklet. Here is one girl's "chocolate cake Viking helmet" along with a photo of her wearing her leather Viking shoes (which she stitched herself this weekend!!!).
