Playground Leaders 2024 - 2025

Children in Year 5 and 6 were given the opportunity to apply for a position as a play leader. This will involve organising games and sporting activities at play times for the younger children at school. Not only will this be amazing for the children enjoying the games, our play leaders will learn some fantastic skills while they are leading activities.

We had over 50 applicants! The Year 5 and 6 took part in a course ran by Mr Garnett to learn the skills and to build their confidence before leading sessions. As we have had so many, we have had to do a rota for before Christmas and a rota for after Christmas to give all of the applicants an opportunity. 

The playground leaders have already started running activities and games for the Year 3 children who are really enjoying the sessions. Some activities are sports related and some are fun games to play. Our playground leaders are adapting the games to suit the children who are taking part.
