Education Officer Visit

Have you met Cycler? If you’re 11 or under then Cycler wants to see you, ask your teacher to introduce you to Cycler.

Cycler is a unique educational show provided for primary schools interested in environmental education. Cycler has appeared three times on Blue Peter and was recently awarded a green Blue Peter Badge to celebrate 10 years working in schools.

Cycler the robot is made from recovered waste materials with a tummy made from plastic bottles.

Cycler raps, dances and sings out the 3Rs message of reduce, reuse, recycle, all over the UK in a fun and interactive partnership with an Education Officer. Every child receives a copy of the Cycler activity book or activity sheet.

Cycler is aimed at children aged 5 to 11 and is available throughout the UK.
