On 16th and 17th October, former world champion scooter rider Terry Price from BMX, Skate & Scoot Academy will be visiting school to deliver stunt scooter workshops and an assembly.
Your child has been invited to take part in the workshops, which include the basics of stunt scootering and some simple tricks. Scooters and helmets will be provided for every child. No personal scooters will be allowed. Children will need to wear trainers, PE kit and clothing appropriate for current temperatures. No skirts or loose clothing please. Any long hair must be tied in a low pony tail or plait to ensure helmets fit snug around the head. Please let the school know if your child is unable to ride a two-wheeled scooter.
Wednesday 16th October: Year 3 and Year 4 children are taking part.
Thursday 17th October: Year 5 and Year 6 children are taking part.
