Garnock Valley Sports Leaders

2023-09-14 No comments Mirren Gilbert Garnock Valley

Garnock Valley Sports Leaders are a group of pupils who train in upskilling ourselves to go out into local primaries and secondary to provide sporting opportunities in the local area. As a group we want to be able to provide young people in our community with quality equal opportunities to take part in sport. We believe that this can promote healthy mental and physical wellbeing among these young people. Through leading these extra curriculum clubs, it helps boost young people’s overall physically activity to help meet the government’s guidance of 60 minutes a day. It teaches the young people the benefits of physical activity as well as how it can improve mental wellbeing. We also hope that in providing new sporting opportunies for young peole that they may be able to find one the enjoy or love. Through this we will be able to sign post to local clubs in the area to help add to a sense of community and spirit.

Educational STEM / ECO Trips

2023-09-08 No comments Lesley Richardson Three Towns

Parents for Stanley would like to apply for £1000 or less to allow some of the stages of the pupils from P1 - 7 who are currently doing a STEM/ Science project or an Eco themed topic to go on an educational trip to consolidate their learning and share in environmental and science based experiences and activities.  Alot of trips are now inexcssible to our kids as the bus costs and activity cost has rocketed and this price if the parents are asked for ther full amount will impact on them financially.  If we got funding it would either reduce the price of the trip or it would mean there was no cost.

5th Dreghorn Rangers

2023-09-17 No comments oliviaerinhughes Irvine

We are a girl-guiding unit for girls aged 14-18. The group currently consists of nine girls who have been dedicated to girl guiding since they were 5 years old. The girls follow a programme of skill-builder badges in themes such as camping, communication and first aid. Our programme of interest badges, skill builders and awards support these young women to try new things, travel the world and develop skills across our six themes. Many of the girls are young leaders for local rainbows and brownies and are working on building their CVs for their future careers. Rangers is about taking the lead and finding new challenges. It can be seen as a rare sight to see young people engaged in helping their community and we wish to continue seeking opportunities to help the girls grow. This group of girls have excelled as role models to the young girl-guiding community from helping with trips to inspiring them to be themselves. The girls have been allowed to advocate for the issues in the world around them and educate future generations. This is only possible with funding to develop these ambitious and driven young women.

Dreghorn Primary Parent Council Funding Inclusive Whole School Trip

2023-09-11 No comments DreghornPrimaryPC Irvine

Dreghorn Primary Parent Council(PC) would like to provide a trip for the whole school, this would be the first trip for years.  Pupils and Parents have expressed their desire for a whole school trip but have alluded to the challenge posed by the current cost of living crisis.  Not having a whole school trip is adversely effecting children of all ages and we want to ensure that finance is not a barrier. The PC are applying for funding to cover the cost for every child. We all have great memories of trips, we would like that for this generation. Outdoor learning is so important to make connections between school and the real world – bringing topics alive. The extensive benefits for health and wellbeing are also well documented. One pupil said " I enjoy trips, they are very educational because you are in a new place, learning new things that you would never be able to see in school. Another pupil told us " You get out all day to see things and its fun. I like a trip because you get to be with all your friends from the other classes and it can be good learning.

Young Ambassadors Programme

2023-09-12 No comments Hollie Allardyce Irvine

At the heart of the Young Ambassador programme is our principle that our views, and those of other young people are heard, valued and influence decision making; and that they are engaged in driving sporting change in our school and in the community. In this context our Young Ambassador role has two key bits: <ul> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">to promote sport, and motivate and inspire other young people to get involved in sport in a wide range of settings within their local communities, including schools, clubs and community organisations</li> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">to influence six key aspects of school sport:  <ul style="list-style-type:circle"> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">extra-curricular sport provision</li> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">links to community sport opportunities</li> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">opportunities for extra- curricular competition </li> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">celebration of young people achievements in sport</li> <li style="margin-bottom:11px">leadership opportunities for young people</li> </ul> </li> </ul> As role models and leaders for other young people, Young Ambassadors can have a pivotal role within their school and wider community. We have a Young Ambassador comittee in each school and it is pupil lead and supported by school staff and Active Schools Staff.

This will have a positive impact physically and mentally for the children and will allow a more fun approach to learning. We would also like to put £150 towards to cost of free school discos for all the children to attend and enjoy.

With the cost of living crisis it has proved a challenge to fundraise. The team will be going to their first ever abroad tournament in Holland in March 2024.  We have done a huge amount of fundraising to cover the costs of all the boys to travel and stay in Holland.  We are applying to this fund to help cover the costs of meals, strips and a zip track top.
