Encouraging Cycling

So this morning we had a talk off a man from Kildare County Council on cycling. He highlighted the positive benefits of cycling, and reasons why to cycle to school. It was pretty convincing. He showed us different videos and a Powerpoint presentation on cycling. In the presentation there was statistics on cycling, and it showed that Salesian's college (The boys school in Celbridge) have the most amount of people cycling to school in Kildare! Our school has a green flag in Transport, and in order to maintain this more people have to walk or cycle to school. So this talk was a great encouragement for all of us. Kildare County Council are also giving free bicycles to four lucky Transition Year students. It is very kind of them. :)
