RECEPTION children from Eckington CE First School have completed a Balanceability course.

The youngsters have developed their balance skills through games and activities, resulting in all of them learning how to ride a balance bike or pedal bike safely and confidently.

The course has been running at the school for twelve weeks.

Class teacher Leila Steele said: “It has been a fantastic opportunity for the children to take part in.

"Nicky, our Balanceability teacher, has provided us with such a successful programme we are already looking forward to booking next year when our reception children will be joined by nursery children in our new Early Years Class starting in September 2018."
