Last week saw our Year 12 Sports Leaders begin a term of Football Coaching for the Girls and Boys teams at St Helen’s Primary School in Wheathampstead. Four of our Year 12 students head down every Monday during Period 7 to coach the Y5 and 6 Girls and Boys Teams for an hour long session after school. This is a fantastic opportunity for our leaders to develop their coaching skills whilst supporting the next generation of players.

They do a fantastic job leading the activities – showing energy, team work, and encouragement to inspire the younger pupils. Both the Headteacher and Deputy at St Helen’s are hugely appreciative of their efforts and are excited to see the partnership continue.

Emily even popped along to coach the girls team in their first matches of the season last Friday, in the pouring rain. Deputy Head Alistair Denton outlined “Both teams won their games and really appreciated having Emily there to support them”. Keep up the great work Year 12!
