Year 8 Sports Leaders show their potential

Today saw the sixth year of the Dorset Leadership Academy held at Bryanston School in Blandford. Nine Year 8 Sports Leaders were selected to attend in order to hone and refine their skills through a number of workshops. Two pupils attended the Silver Young Ambassador programme due to their outstanding leadership so far this year. The remaining pups attended the Young Leader programme and learnt through a series of practical activities and challenges. The opening address was from GB Water Polo captain, Craig Figes, who spoke to the students about motivation, determination and leadership from a personal perspective. He was on hand through the the day to work with the silver young ambassadors.
