Lifeguards in Year 7.

30th May 2019

What could be more important than looking after your heart?  That's what Laurence and Luke believe!

All 246 Year 7 pupils are so engaged with this Lifeguards programme. Every week each class has a 30 minute workout session where they take time to exercise different muscles in the body - usually to some very trendy music!  For many pupils this is the highlight of their school week. 

Each child's fitness is tested at the start and the end of the programme to see how much progress they have made. Laurence and Luke also start and end the programme by hosting inspirational assemblies where they aim to develop a positive, healthy mind set  with the pupils.

This is the second year of this programme in Strandtown PS.  Mr. Ewart believes it is one of the best things we have ever introduced into our Year 7 curriculum. The feedback from pupils and parents is very positive, not to mention the benefits to pupils' physical and mental well-being.

Strandtown PS. would like to place on record their sincere gratitude to Laurence and Luke for the time and effort they invest in our pupils. Thank you so much.
