Cycling Mechanic!

At Mead we believe in empowering the pupils to apply their skills in real life. Following the training provided by Bike Club, our young mechanics have been able to assist other pupils. Here are some photos of our cycling hero, Jamie Alexander (aged 10)  from Year 5 at Mead Primary school.

He has been learning from Jeremy Tranter - of Sustrans - how to mend punctures, and teach children to ditch the stabilisers.

Jamie has been a very useful assistant for the Year 3 / 4 bike club. During the Big Pedal, he got his whole family and friends out on their bikes, and they have continued to use them since. He is a real star!
