On Thursday 21st January, the Year 11 Salesian BTEC sports students, joined by the Head of PE and class teacher Mr Paul Simpson, undertook a half-day Sports Leaders introduction course with SSCo Ashley Montgomery to learn about hosting, coordinating and delivering a Multi-Skills Festival for Primary students.
The students were introduced to the concept of leadership and the qualities that coincide with being a good leader and were asked to utilise these in a range of team building games. The students were then provided with ideas, tips and basic scaffolding on how to officiate and coordinate a wide range of games and activities for Primary school students.
Although a cold and overcast afternoon on Monday 25th January, the Year 11 students of Salesian College were provided with the opportunity to demonstrate the leadership skills and qualities that they had acquired from their training with two Key Stage 1 classes from Westbridge and Sacred Heart. The students provided a Multi-Skill circuit for the brave Year 2 students, who participated wonderfully in all the activities they were involved in.
The successful afternoon concluded with all the Year 2 students very tired but excited from their activities, which were demonstrated, coordinated and delivered very appropriately and professionally by the Salesian students.
On behalf of the Wandsworth School Sports Partnership, thank you to Salesian College for hosting the festival, well done to all the Year 11 BTEC students for your excellent examples of professionalism set for the Primary school students and successful activities coordinated and thank you to all the brave Year 2 students (and their accompanying teachers and supervisors) from Westbridge and Sacred Heart schools, as without you, our leaders would not have been given the opportunity to demonstrate and test their newly acquired abilities.
