    • Lockers @ Danebury

      Published 13/03/26, by Susan Braidley

      We have had several enquiries regarding lockers for the students. We use a company called ILS, Idependent Locker Solutions. If you go to www.ilsschools.co.uk you will be able to follow the instructions and book a locker for £36 per year. They are very useful to have and make it so much easier for students, they can put their PE kits in, coats if they don't need them on in the day, project items etc.

    • Youth Impact, First Aid Course

      Published 13/03/26, by Susan Braidley

       

      Dear Parent/Guardian,

      We’re delighted to introduce our new Youth Impact Foundation Programme, a four-day holiday programme taking place during this Easter holidays, designed specifically for young people aged 11–14 (Year 7 – Year 9).

      Your Sports Education has a strong track record of delivering high-quality youth programmes. Traditionally, we run a programme for Year 11 students during the summer, and we’re excited to now launch this new Foundation Programme, created especially for younger students to enjoy the same fun, confidence-building experiences at an age-appropriate level.

      This programme combines fun with valuable learning in a safe, supportive environment. The cost is £99 for all four days or £50 for any two days, and we are pleased to offer fully funded (free) places for pupils who receive Free School Meals and are HAF eligible.

      What is the Foundation Programme?

      The Foundation Programme is all about helping young people have an amazing week during the Easter holidays while building confidence, making friends, and learning new skills along the way. Families can choose for their child to attend any two days or all four days, offering flexibility to suit different schedules.

      Across the programme, young people will take part in a wide variety of fun, hands-on activities, including:

      · High-energy teambuilding games and inflatables

      · A variety of sports activities

      · An interactive Monopoly Challenge, introducing money management and decision-making in a fun way

      · A practical first aid workshop, teaching life-saving skills

      · A creative cooking workshop, building confidence and independence

      · Debating workshops to help young people find their voice

      · A media workshop, exploring creativity and communication

      · A fun photobooth workshop, encouraging self-expression and teamwork

      · Managing money sessions to introduce positive financial habits

      Why should my child take part?

      The Foundation Programme is designed to be fun, engaging, and rewarding, while also supporting young people to:

      · Build confidence, independence, and resilience

      · Learn practical life skills in an enjoyable, hands-on way

      · Make new friends and feel part of a team

      · Discover new interests and talents

      · Enjoy a memorable, active half-term experience that balances learning with fun

      Free places for FSM / HAF-eligible pupils

      We are committed to ensuring all young people can access exciting holiday opportunities. If your child receives Free School Meals and is HAF eligible, they can at-tend the Foundation Programme completely free of charge.

      We strongly encourage eligible families to visit our website and register their inter-est early, as funded places are limited.
