The St. James-Assiniboia School Division (SJASD) 'Wheel Challenge' is coming to a close. It is hard to believe it has been almost a month already. The SJASD 'Wheel Challenge' is on track to finish on June 15, 2021. It is not too late to finish off your bingo card!

The SJASD "Wheel Challenge"' has been more than anticipated, with many great stories and experiences shared over the last three weeks. With this increased attention to the challenge has come some extra incentive. To add some extra motivation, we have been fortunate to be provided with more draws to win a bike, scooter or skateboard of your choice. To add even more incentive, we have partnered with White Pine Bicycle who will provide a bike for three lucky students and one lucky parent!

• One early year's student (who gets to pick a parent who will also win a bike!)
• One middle year's student
• One high school student

Remember, this optional opportunity has been an activity independent of the school day. As such, parents and guardians assume the responsibility for supervision and supporting your child in this opportunity. No expectations, just an invitation, and no need to register or sign up.

When wheeling, remember:

• We encourage you to get a basic inspection of equipment.
• Ensure items are roadworthy, safe and the right size for your child.
• Wear a properly fitting helmet.
  
• Use proper safety gear, including knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards where necessary.
• Obey all traffic rules and signals.
• It's always best to wheel with your household.

Lastly, we encourage you to submit a picture with signage or your Bingo card. The photos will be compiled in a video and posted to our divisional website and social media channels. Again, no expectations, just an invitation. Submit Bingo Cards and photos here. https://forms.office.com/r/LbGaWsQpwC

Many of us are embracing walking and biking to stay healthy and active during this challenging period, and it's a great habit to maintain.

Let's get Rolling!
