On the last day of National Sports Week, Skipping4Schools went to Holy Cross High School in Chorley to join Hywel & Jamie, Rock FM's grooviest and definitely most anarchic afternoon presenters to lead 3 minutes of skipping with all of years 7 and 8. Even the Lord Mayor ventured to pick up a rope in support of the 3 minute skip!
We were additionally keen to create a sustainable element to the package offered to the Partnerships and as part of the deal, we were able to offer schools a Skipping Workshop Set of ropes, a training DVD, a half day 'Teaching the Teachers' training session as well as our competition and cross-curricular resources pack.
Craig Vickers, PDM for Preston SSP and co-lead PDM for the Skip4Life project, said "Working with Skipping4schools on the Skip4Life project was a really pleasurable, fulfilling and professional experience. The quality of support, delivery and resources really ensured that the project was an overwhelming success, we look forward to developing the professional and business relationship with them in the future."
