Integrated Swimming Gala-
Priory students were on hand to support this year’s Gala as competitors with Sport Leaders helping behind the scenes.
Priory Leadership-
Yr 9 Sport Leaders have been on hand to take Yr 5 & 6 primary students through their paces in a number of Tag Rugby Festivals located at various Orpington schools. The framework of delivery included a carousel of activities that promoted improved teamwork; passing & running with the ball combined with a practical appreciation of the rules of the game. On each occasion, positive feedback was expressed by both staff and students as to how much all prospered from the experience.
Yr 9 Sport Leaders have also been on hand to support Year 5 students with a set of multi-skill challenges under the umbrella of the Team Elite initiative. Although some school visits have had to be postponed due to inclement weather, others have yielded commendable results from students rotated around eight tasks that have tested their agility; balance and co-ordination in various ways.
The Priory has successfully established a
Young Ambassadors assigned to promote a range of sporting opportunities at both Primary & Secondary levels. Supporting Yr 7 & 8 students not usually engaged in sport, the YAs have worked upon a framework of delivery in the field of intra-competition with extra-curricular coaching sessions due to commence after Easter. Promoting both Olympic & Paralympic values has been instrumental within their roles & responsibilities that will result in the leading of Primary school assemblies in what promises to be a uniquely exciting Summer term ahead.
