7/10/2019 Leaders look lively.Ten Year 7 pupils have been busy brushing up on their leadership skills at today’s Dorset Primary Leadership Academy at Poole High School. After arriving and getting into their brand new Bronze Ambassador t-shirts, the group set to work planning exactly how they were going to motivate KS2 pupils back at school to take part in more physical activity. Some superb ideas have been suggested and we are all very excited to get back to school and start putting them into practice.
The team have suggested planning and delivering an assembly for our younger pupils as well as designing posters for tutor rooms to advertise their new reward scheme.
