Sports Day at Northern Counties School
The hottest day of the year didn’t stop our learners from taking part in sports day celebrations!
Sports day is one of our favourite events in the calendar, giving our learners an opportunity to take part in healthy competition and enjoy a range of physical activities.
Families and friends joined us in the sunshine as we settled in for an afternoon of games.
Games included throwing balls, bean bags, badminton, basketball, and races. Excitement was certainly high as our learners engaged in a variety of individual and team competitions.
Ice pops were handed out to all as a welcome refreshment after an afternoon of activities.
Research shows that physical activity is closely linked to improved mental health and overall wellbeing in individuals with disabilities, promoting greater engagement and quality of life.
