Sports Leaders

At Farsley Springbank, our Year 6 Sports Leaders play an important role in promoting physical activity, teamwork and enjoyment across our school.

Working together in small groups, they take responsibility for planning and leading fun, inclusive activities and challenges for children across all year groups to enjoy during lunchtimes. They encourage others to get involved, try new activities, develop their skills and celebrate their achievements.

Our Sports Leaders also recognise children's efforts and participation by awarding certificates during Friday's celebration assemblies. The role provides a fantastic opportunity for our Year 6 children to develop their confidence, communication, teamwork and leadership skills while inspiring others to lead active and healthy lifestyles.

Music Ambassadors

We have the role of Music Ambassadors in Year 6, to give children a chance to contribute to the musical organisation in school, and act as role models for the younger children. The children chosen are those who have shown commitment to our music groups and a real passion for the subject. Their role is to support and inspire other children through music. This includes:

• Helping to run Singing Assemblies, encouraging positive attitudes, handing out team points and choosing children to sit on the "bench of brilliance".
• Leading activities in Singing Assembly, such as demonstrating BSL to accompany our songs, and running the technical aspect of the sessions.
• Visiting Reception classes once a week to run singing playground games during their lunch break.
• Running the Christmas and Summer concerts, by introducing acts, managing technical requirements and helping to organise the younger children.
• Supporting younger pupils during Orchestra and Choir rehearsals.

They are a vital part of music in school, and hand over their role to the new ambassadors every year, by training them up in the summer term!
