All children in KS2 had an opportunity to participate in a skateboard lesson with Douglas Ducket, a coach from Skateboard GB. The children learnt the importance of using the right safety kit. After getting kitted up, the children showed amazing focus and determination in learning how to balance, stand and travel on a skateboard. Some children even showed enough courage to have a go at skating on the quarter pipe! 

Now the children have achieved their "cruiser award" and know the basics of how to skateboard safely, we hope this has inspired them to use the skate park in their own time!
