School Green Gym

We are delivering a School Green Gym programme off-site, in local Leeds Primary Schools.

The aim of School Green Gym is to engage children in an hour a week of physical activity through conservation, gardening and environmental education activities, within the school grounds. Each session will have a focus on increasing respect for, and knowledge of, the natural environment; as well as boosting the self-esteem of individuals and developing confidence in their abilities.

By taking part in this programme, the children will:

  • gain an increased knowledge and awareness of environmental issues affecting them;
  • learn new practical conservation skills, including how to use different tools;
  • be physically active and mentally engaged in something new and exciting, for an hour a week, out of school hours;
  • have loads of fun, meet new people and fulfill their potential!!
