Be a Champion

March 25, 2021 by admin

We are always looking at ways to enhance the wellbeing of our pupils and we are delighted to announce that we are offering our pupils the chance to take part in an exciting new challenge, which is being organised by former Leeds Rhinos Rugby League player, Jamie Peacock.
Jamie Peacock, Leeds Rhinos Rugby League legend,
“I was able to excel in my career because of my focus and understanding of the importance of wellbeing. If you don’t know already, wellbeing consists of 4 areas:
Positive Mindset
Sleeping Well,
Physical Activity
Eating Healthily”
This programme is suitable for pupils in the UK aged 10 and over.
How do I access the challenge?
To register for the challenge please complete the below link:
https://us02web.zoom.us/…/reg…/WN_tUxmejNCTbq5r-Uk_6czXA
Jamie Peacock In Partnership with Schools Advisory Service is pleased to share the Be A Champion 30 Day Pupil Wellbeing Programme. Jamie and SAS wanted to help schools, academies and parents / guardians with resources to support their pupils and to empower young people to look after their mental and physical wellbeing.
Jamie will introduce the 30 day challenge during a webinar where he will discuss his experience and how working on the four areas of wellbeing have affected his career and helped Jamie be a champion.
Every person that signs up will receive pages needed for week 1 in the form of a digital book and can request a hard copy sent to them in the post. Jamie will provide updates on tasks for the 30 day challenge once a week with another short webinar at the end of the 30 days.
