Stokesley School young leaders run sports day for primary school pupils

A team of Year 8 and 9 Stokesley School students demonstrated their leadership skills to run a primary sports event hosted at their school.

The 11 young leaders and Lindsey Asher, Stokesley School sports co-ordinator, welcomed foundation stage students from local primary schools to come and have a go at a range of multi-skills.

The four and five-year-olds ran, jumped, hopped, balanced, skipped, crawled, threw, rolled and smiled their way around the sports hall as the students guided groups through a carousel of nine different activities.

Lindsey said: “It is always a great pleasure to welcome the youngest of our local primary children to multi-skills events and see how much they get out of the activities.

“Our young leaders engage so well with the children and it’s wonderful to watch them growing in confidence.

“They are a real credit to the school and their parents. We look forward to seeing what they can achieve in the future on their journey through PE at school.”

 

This is just one of a number of events that the school offer to primary schools in the Stokesley area, with a number of other activities, including a netball tournament, hockey festival and Change-4-Life Festival, taking place this term.
