Our football team plays a crucial role in promoting health, wellbeing and social inclusion.  It’s a critical age for children to begin experimenting with alcohol and smoking but having a focus with our team helps to support the boys make positive decisions. We have a range of families in our team, some from deprived areas and a family from Ukraine. Being a part of our team has helped reduce social barriers for these boys and ensure they have a sense of belonging whilst also supporting one of the boys learn to speak English.  They are also learning to work positively as part of a team and respect which they take into their daily lives at school and at home with their families.  We promote healthy choices as a team and as a result of this many of the boys have joined the gym and attend regularly to keep improving their fitness levels and socialise with one another. Our dedicated coaches volunteer a large amount of time to the team for training, matches and all the organising that goes on in the background.

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.

Barnardo's Christmas Outing

2023-09-11 No comments Fiona Irvine

Barnardo's works with young people across North Ayrshire in a variety of services. We would like to take the young people to a Pantomime this Christmas as their Christmas activity. We did this last year with non-recurring funding so this year we are looking for support as the young people that attended last year had such a good time, they got out the house, socialised and made new friends, and had a laugh. We will take the young people for dinner before the Panto and make them up a snack bag for the show. This activity will help young people with their mential health and wellbeing and social isolation. Dates for this years Pantomime are from 1st December to 7th January.

Scottish Sports Futures - Active:2:Grow

2023-09-10 No comments Alan Hendry Irvine

Scottish Sports Futures (SSF) are looking to apply for additional funds to support the ongoing delivery of our Active2Grow programme in partnership with the Ghillie Dhu Project. The Active:2:Grow programme currently supports care experienced young people through mental health and wellbeing provision. However, as this project only currently funds staff costs, this is in desperate need of additional resources to support the young people which it engages with on a weekly basis. The funds applied for will contribute directly towards additional resources for the young people, allowing us to further provide much needed wellbeing support for children most in need. These resources will include winter giftbags and wellbeing boxes for all young people attending the sessions, a sports kitbag and a ‘broadening horizon activity’. This activity will consisted of encouraging young people to take on new experiences, build their confidence/resilience, and widen their support networks within their local communities. These funds will allow us to provide resources to some of the young people most in need on this support across the locality, ensuring that we can continue to provide tailored and person-centred mental health and wellbeing support, while also building closer connections to the wider communities.

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.
