Sports Leaders
Our sports leaders have a three-edged role. They should ensure satisfaction for their peers, perform well for themselves and steer other children to success. A sports leader is someone in charge or organizing, guiding and managing others. They are visionaries who motivate and encourage their team to reach the desired outcome.
Sports leaders;
- Have a keen interest in physical activity
- Are enthusiastic about encouraging others to be active
- Know about how to lead an active lifestyle
- Are able to explain the importance of physical activity and healthy living for all and its benefits
- Have opportunities to create physical activities for other pupils
- Promote competitive school sports events
- Referee any sporting events, including lunch time sport and activities
- Possess self-awareness, have a focus on relationship building and have an unbiased attitude - this all contributes to help them judge fairly, exhibit humility and empower others.
Pupil voice assembly Summer 1
Our pupils were given the opportunity to exchange ideas with the sports leaders this term in an assembly. We took on each pupil's views and introduced some new ideas to the playground.
- Zoned areas
- Different activities ran by a TP
- Field sports
- Traditional games
- Construction play
- Music box Friday
We have seen an increase in pupil engagement, which also supports their well-being and mental health. Our outdoor play zones give children the opportunity to explore and try new activities. Active play helps our children with social skills-sharing, turn taking, helping others and trying to work out conflict (sometimes with adult support).
We have seen all abilities, genders and cultures coming together with no barriers to enjoy and play together.
