So far the project has been delivered to nine schools, with a combined roll of 3666 students.
The Bike to the Future Awards acknowledged New Zealand's most innovative cycling projects and celebrated the people who were making cycling a safer and more attractive transport choice.
More than 60 nominations for projects across New Zealand were made this year.
The Bikes at Work and School category recognised organisations which made significant efforts to encourage and support cycling for staff, customers or students.
The awards organised by the New Zealand Transport Agency and Cycling Action Network (CAN) are now in their third year.
The finalists ranged from large-scale infrastructure projects such as the Te Awa River Ride, to education initiatives including the Refugee Women's Cycling Instruction project, which taught migrant and refugee women how to ride a bike.
CAN spokesman Patrick Morgan said the calibre of nominations was outstanding.
"There's no doubt that biking is on the up. The quality of nominations is a testament to the incredible work happening all over the country. New Zealanders are not spinning their wheels; instead they are finding new and exciting ways to encourage people to get on their bikes."
NZ Transport Agency senior management system design Brett Gliddon said the Government was more committed to encouraging more Kiwis to choose active transport options such as cycling, to lower carbon emissions and benefit health.
"We know that New Zealanders are looking for more efficient transport options that are good for them and for their communities. More people on bikes means more efficient movement in urban centres, reduced emissions, improved public health and fitness, and most importantly, more liveable cities."
The winners will be announced on July 31 in Palmerston North at the 2WALKandCYCLE awards dinner.
