Our School Games funding is used to engage the least active young people in physical activity and movement opportunities working with educational settings:
Targeted interventions
Girls Carousel
We are in the 4th academic year of running girls carousels, we work in all 4 areas of the Humber with local leisure providers. These sessions run as part of School PE at a local leisure site, these sessions aim to give young people different opportunities and experiences at community venues. These sessions offer activities such as junior gym, fitness classes. Mindfulness sessions and wellbeing walks. We want young people who don’t typically engage well in school PE to find movement they love, for example walking and talking with friends, good for our general wellbeing and physical health.
Motor Activity Training Programme (MATP)
We are working in partnership with Special Olympics to deliver Motor Activity Training Programme with schools Humber wide, for more information or to book your school in for support please contact Lucy Gray lgray@activehumber.co.uk
School Games Organiser place based work
We support SGO’s to work with us on local need, SGO’s work in partnership with Active Humber to deliver place based interventions focusing on the key School Games areas including youth voice, positive experiences, physical literacy and reducing inequalities.
Creating Active Schools (CAS)
We are now in our third academic year supporting primary schools across the Humber to deliver CAS. CAS focuses on whole school approach through physical activity. We are currently working with 5 schools Humber wide however we are in the process of engaging with more schools to bring them on board. Our CAS Humber network supports schools to come together 3 times a year to discuss all things CAS and we are creating that network of schools supporting schools. For more information please get in touch. Show Chiltern video here.
