WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR OUR NEXT TRIP TO TENNANT CREEK!!

See below info for our bike mechanics training :)

Did you see a lot of kids on bikes around TC during the last school holidays???
Bikes Mwerre is partnering with Our Shed and coming back in June for more kids workshops and to train up community members to help teach our TC kids to fix their own bikes.
Do you want to help our kids stay on their bikes and help skills stay in our community?
Register for the training on this link. Cost is $60 but we are offering free spots too.
