On Friday 28th November eleven students from Years 8 and 9 took part in the Sky Sports – Living For Sport Programme where they had a visit from Paralympic Swimmer Kate Grey and 400m Indoor Champion Michelle Owusu and undertook a variety of exciting team activities.
Students were able to engage in question and answer sessions with the athletes as well as playing a range of practical games which focused on the six keys to success: mental toughness, hunger to achieve, people skills, sports and life knowledge, breaking barriers and planning for success.
It was fantastic to see so many of the students interacting enthusiastically with students from other years and showing excellent communication skills to help them achieve success in their tasks. The students thoroughly enjoyed the experience and many of them were still talking about it after school at Rock Climbing!
