Wheels used as fun fundraiser

Young cyclists from Kingswood College peddled their way around a road-safety circuit to raise money for good causes.

Pupils in Reception class were joined by toddlers from Acorns Nursery to perform five laps each for the NSPCC.

All participants were invited to bring along any wheeled device from home, with bicycles, tricycles and even scooters on display.

It was the first time the College had held such an event and more are planned for the future.

Clare Proctor from Acorns Nursery said: 'The event was a complete success, every child had a really good time and we will definitely be holding similar events in the future.'

A wide aray of wheeled contraptions were used as the children took on the challenge of the makeshift race course and in the process learnt many road safety skills.
