Activities

At Newcastle Bridges School we recognise the importance of keeping active, but we also recognise that many of pupils find a very structured sports timetable challenging. All of the young people at NBS have Activities on their weekly timetable and are given the opportunity to participate in at least one Activities session per week. In Activities, we provide an inclusive programme through a wide variety of fun, structured and enjoyable activities, with the main focus being enjoyment and engagement in physical activity. We provide pupils with a range of experiences to allow them to develop their skills of movement, as well as to develop and apply their interpersonal skills, including determination, self-belief, honesty, teamwork, respect and passion. The young people are always consulted about their preferred sporting activities and these choices are usually incorporated into their session in the best way possible considering the facilities that are available.
