<p>With the success of our school&#39;s program&nbsp;and Easter&nbsp;and Sumner camps we now&nbsp;have more kids and families using our facilities. To improve the area and make it easier for disabled and small kids in prams we are looking to extend a pathway into the main car park area and make ramp access into our dressing rooms and toilet area.</p>

<p>As a Sports Council we would like to support young people in the Irvine Area participate in Sport and Physical Activitiy and increase the number of people who participate in sport.&nbsp; We are a group of 14-17 year old young people who have had some great experiences and opportunties in Sport of our own and we want to help others have this too.&nbsp; We have personally seen that sport can help with our&nbsp;physical, mental, social and emotional wellbeing and we&nbsp;strongly believe that all young people should have the access to physical activity to help improve their own wellbeing.&nbsp; One of the barriers for young people to take part in sport is the access to sports kit and the access to free sport sessions.&nbsp; As a Sports Council we already offer free sessions (in a variety of different activities) but the young children who we see often don&#39;t have a tshirt / shorts etc often miss out or are embarrassed that they don&#39;t have sports clothing and therefore don&#39;t come to clubs.&nbsp; By having sports kit to give out, this will hopefully remove that financial barrier and make sport more accessible for all and allow us to create a sports community with strong representation and identity. The target group for this support would be 12 &amp; 13 year olds in the Irvine area.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">Dreghorn Primary Parent Council(PC) would like to provide a trip for the whole school, this would be the first trip for years. &nbsp;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.&nbsp; 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. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">Outdoor learning is so important to make connections between school and the real world &ndash; bringing topics alive. The extensive benefits for health and wellbeing are also well documented.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">One pupil said &quot; 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 &quot; You get out all day to see things and its fun. I like a trip&nbsp;because you get to be with all your friends from the other classes and it can be good learning.</span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
