“It’s time to add a pinch of adventure, a sprinkle of sunshine and a big handful of outdoor play” - Penny Whitehouse ☀️🍉

This week our students got to hit the pavement on their scooters and bikes! Not only did they get some physical activity in, but it also allowed them to learn more about safety (like wearing a helmet and being aware), as well as bike etiquette (such as giving adequate space to others).

A reminder to all of our families (& community!) that the code PLAYSCHOOL26 gets you a discount on Pedalheads Bike Camps this summer! 🚲
