As part of the legacy of the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics, schools in Britain have received substantial funding. At Green Haworth, we will be using this funding for the following purposes:
To give our children free access to a wide range of sports and healthy activities through P.E and after-school clubs.
To provide county-wide competition in a range of sports.
To ensure that children of all ages experience competition against other schools in the borough.
To utilise high-quality facilities that we would not normally be able to access.
To train staff to a high level of coaching so there is sustainability beyond having access to Legacy funding.
To help children make positive decisions regarding healthy lifestyles.
All young people should have the opportunity to live healthy and active lives. A positive experience of sport and physical activity at a young age can build a lifetime habit of participation and is central to meeting the government’s ambitions for a world-class education system.
Physical activity has numerous benefits for children and young people’s physical health, as well as their mental wellbeing (increasing self-esteem and emotional wellbeing and lowering anxiety and depression), and children who are physically active are happier, more resilient and more trusting of their peers. Ensuring that pupils have access to sufficient daily activity can also have wider benefits for pupils and schools, improving behaviour as well as enhancing academic achievement.

School Sports Crew
Our School Sports Organising Crew are a group of children who have been selected to support the organising of the Sainsbury's School Games. They help to organise and officiate at the end of term Interschool competitions. They have also lead fitness testing across the school which will be repeated each term. The School Sports Organising Crew also work like the school council and they can put forward ideas for how we can improve PE and opportunities for sport in our school.
We will soon be adding new members to the School Sports Crew to replace the Year 6 members that have left. See Mrs Gleadhill if you are interested.
DANCE
Katie is a dance teacher who teaches at Accrington Academy. Through the School Sports Partnership we are lucky to be able to have her teach in our school for half a term.
She is spending one lesson a week with both Class 1 and Class 2.
Here are some photos from her first session with Class 2.
Gymnastics
Class 1 and 2 are currently benefitting from a Gymnastics coach who teaches at a local high school and also runs her own gymnastics club! Toni will be teaching a lesson a week until February half term. Here are some photos from her first lesson with class 2 when they worked on building strength, balancing and position.

Small Schools Indoor Athletics Champions!
A team of Year 5 and 6 boys have recently won the Small Schools Indoor Athletics which took place at Hyndburn Leisure Centre. The competition consisted of several sprint relays, long jump, vertical standing jump and javelin. The boys performed particularly well in the sprints and, as you can see from the photos, thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Children from Class 1 had the opportunity to attend a 'Curling event' at Accrington Academy last night. The four children that were chosen made it to the semi-finals. They behaved impeccably and really enjoyed themselves. Well done, Violet, Caden, Shabaz and Archie! :)
