Story
The 18 pupils from Tresco and Bryher School are raising money and awareness for Canine Partners by doing a Pedal for Paws sponsored bike ride. As a school we are very passionate about dogs and have been watching videos and researching this charity and think it's amazing what these dogs can do for their owners.
Here is a link to a video that really inspired us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj20OE9hnc4
On Tuesday 20th March we will be cycling a challenging route around Tresco over green banks and through dirt tracks!
