As you know I work as a Teaching Assistant at All Saints Academy Plymouth and this week I was pleased to help the school celebrate a top national award presented from the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games.
The values of friendship, respect and excellence has helped our Academy to be the first school in the country to achieve a top national GET SET Award.
The scheme gives children and young people the opportunity to promote the core values of the Games, which also include courage, determination and equality.
The Olympic message was shown by the school through a special sports day which was created when we launched the academy last summer. The activity day includes a variety of sports and is aimed at boosting team building skills throughout the student population. I received the plaque on behalf of the school from Plymouth Leander coach Jon Rudd.
Principal of the Academy Pete Grainger and the whole school are honoured to be chosen for this award and the All Saint Academy Programme is an excellent example of how London 2012 is helping to spark young people's imagination and inspiring them to get involved and make a difference.........
WELL DONE ALL SAINTS ACADEMY
