💫 A Super Sporty Start to Spring Term 2! 🏸💫

We hope all of our families had a wonderful and restful half term. It has been fantastic to welcome our students back this week, refreshed, smiling and ready for a busy and exciting few weeks ahead. The start of a new half term always brings fresh energy across the school, and it has been great to see everyone settling back into routines and looking forward to the opportunities ahead.

This term also marks the launch of our new PE offer, giving students even more opportunities to get active, build confidence and develop a range of physical skills. Physical activity plays such an important role in supporting wellbeing, teamwork and resilience, and we are excited to expand the experiences available to our students.

To kick things off, students have already taken part in their first badminton sessions at York St John University. Using the fantastic facilities at the university, students have been introduced to the sport while learning new techniques, improving coordination and developing teamwork skills. The sessions have been filled with enthusiasm and plenty of smiles as students enjoyed trying something new in a professional sporting environment.

It is a fantastic opportunity for our students to access high quality facilities and experience sport in a different setting. Opportunities like this help build confidence, encourage positive relationships and allow students to discover new interests and talents.

We are incredibly proud to be able to offer experiences like this as part of our PE programme, and we look forward to watching our students continue to develop their skills, challenge themselves and represent our school with pride.

Here’s to a positive, active and successful half term ahead. 💪
