Rural primary school hopes to lead the way with successful cycling initiative

A small rural primary school is hoping to lead the way for the rest of the country with a cycling project that encourages children to adapt to a more sustainable way of getting to school.

Children from Fourth Class and older at Scoil Molaise, at Old Leighlin, Co. Carlow have just completed a challenge that called on them to cycle to school at least 20 times before the Christmas holidays.
