Last Friday, 26 enthusiastic students and parent helpers loaded their bikes into support vehicles, the children boarded the bus and travelled to Rutherglen. At Rutherglen, they unloaded their bikes and set off riding the return journey to school with their teacher, Mr Hyde and parent supervisors.
After riding for an hour, a couple of drink stops and a toilet stop, they were pleased to arrive back at school. They reported that there were feeling tired and sore from the ride.
The bike ride was held after a visit to the school by Mr Ray McLarty from Corowa Sportspower who delivered a couple of important messages to the children about bike safety and maintenance before conducting a thorough bike check and repair session. Ray was particularly keen to ensure all the children's bicycles were safe and in good working order, prior to their ride from Rutherglen the next day.
