What it's all about

Me and some fellow education students plan to run a sports action day for local children who have recently moved on from primary to secondary school. We plan on getting the children to interact with one another through sport whilst educating them on a healthy life style. The day will include different sports activities and also activities involving fruit and veg! We are hoping it will be a fun packed day that the children will remember and hopefully take something away with them.

What's needed to make it a reality

We will need to:
provide lunch
provide transport
hire specialised sports and fitness coaches
buy fruit and veg
buy sports equipment
print certificates of attendance
buy prizes
create healthy eating posters

    Nice idea! Sports days are such fun don't forget to have team names - maybe to link in with your healthy living theme!

    Because you are a student at UWE you can access up to £750 to turn your idea into a reality. UWE is one of 15 Universities who are taking part in the scheme where you can access funding, training and support from your Junction49 staff member (Jo) to help you get your project up and running. She'll be in touch with you soon to start helping you develop your project.     Report Abuse

    Thanks for posting your idea up. We need to get together to think about costs. If you want to go ahead with the lunches provided by the sports centre then I have a cost for them. I have to book transport through the university so I will get a cost and let you know what it is.

    What we need to do next is:
    Decide what sports/fitness coaches you need to hire, and confirm costs through Philippa
    Come up with a cost for the fruit and veg you are going to buy, and any craft materials
    Decide what prizes you want to give and what you are going to get
    Find out what equipment you can borrow from the centre for sport and decide what you might need to buy.

    Can you come in and see me next week at all? I won't be around on Wednesday, but any other day is ok.

    Ursula who has posted the first comment is a basketball coach for the uni team, do you think you could use her on the day?     Report Abuse
