We have been encouraged by your high activity levels during the past few weeks and noticed in particular that many of you have been cycling! Today on national bicycle day we thought it would be apt to launch our Road Safety Awareness Activities. During the month of June, there will be a weekly task designed for parents to work alongside and complete with your child/children in relation to a key road safety issue:
Road Safety Education - Week 1 Task (Child Cycle Safety)
This week the focus is on cycle helmets – please ensure your child wears a cycle helmet every time they are riding their bicycle and that it is properly fitted and adjusted to reduce the impact of a fall or collision at slow speed. The attached document has been supplied by Department for Infrastructure ‘Safe and Accessible Travel’ as a guide for you and your child to use.
