• Rockmount wins BMX Display!

  Mon 15 Jun 2015
  Rockmount cycle and scooter stands overflowed with bikes and scooters of different sizes during Big Pedal Weeks! Every day during the Big Pedal, the Bike It Crew awarded a scooter rider or cyclist with a golden lock prize, so we had 12 winners from Reception through to Year 6. Rockmount School had the highest numbers in Croydon of cycling parents and pupils coming to school in the Big Pedal competition and so have won the prize - a BMX display. The five classes with the most cyclists watched this display: Ruby, Zircon, Moonstone, Sapphire and Opal.

• Rockmount Cycle Team beats other schools in Croydon

  Tue 02 Jun 2015

  After timed trials of all Year 5 pupils, a team of 8 of the fastest cyclists was chosen. On 2nd June, this team travelled to the centre of Croydon where a cycle track had been set up in the pedestrian shopping area. The Rockmount cycle team raced against 3 other schools in Croydon and won most of the heats, coming out as the overall winning school! The fastest boy at the event was Finley and the fastest girl was Jacqui. Later that day, the professional cyclists arrived and Ella was chosen to be the one of the men’s team mascot. The race was broadcast on Eurosport and ITV and an article in the Croydon Adviertiser can be found here.
