Cycle Skills Training
Harbour Sport’s ‘Cycle Skills Training’ programme is delivered in line with the New Zealand Transport Agency, BikeReady guidelines and is provided by a team of qualified cycle skills instructors from Harbour Sport.
The programme is delivered in schools and includes practical courses at different levels for year 5 and 6 (Grade 1 – In School) and students of year 7 and 8 (Grade 2 – On Road).
More People on Bikes More Often
As cycling is of the more popular recreational activities in the country, increasing this in the Harbour region is an important goal for Harbour Sport.
Harbour Sport supports a range of activities in the community, from the ‘Cycle Skills Training’ programme for young people in schools to Bikes in School Teachers training, along with advocating for cycling infrastructure, Harbour Sport is leading the charge. We work closely with Auckland Transport offering local activities to educate our community in how cycling for fun is great exercise.
Bike Safety at Belmont Primary, Massey Primary and Albany Junior High School
We recently delivered our Bike Safety programme to students at Belmont Primary, Massey Primary and Albany Junior High School. Check out the videos to see what the students and teachers thought!
Unfortunately this programme is now under threat of being reduced significantly due to road safety funding cuts of 70% from Central Govt. Thankfully Auckland Council have upgraded their funding portion but it’s still not enough to keep the programme running full time in schools as it currently is.
Please send your messages of support to Community Bike Lead, Kelly Cameron, about why you think this programme is so important for our tamariki.
