Rachel Farrington reflects on ‘Strong Girls Can’ at The Market Bosworth School
Strong Girls Can coach Rachel Farrington explains how well students from The Market Bosworth School did during their day of self improvement.
Coach Unlimited delivered the Strong Girls Can programme to dozens of female pupils at the secondary school in Leicestershire.
“It went really well,” said Rachel. “When we first got here, some of the girls were a bit unsure about what we were going to do but, by the second session, they were giving feedback and reaction.
“We said there was no need to feel embarrassed and that everyone in the room should just say how they feel.
“It has just been brilliant to deliver Strong Girls Can. We get a lot of feedback from the girls and when they tell us of the things they are going to take away from the day, it is obviously a real positive.
“One of them even said they were going to marry an prince and nobody was going to stop her!”

It is that dreaded time of year for PE specialists in primary schools. It is the time of the ‘Christmas play’ or carol concert, or nativity. The time when we hear the words ‘the hall is unavailable today because………..” You can put your own next sentence in here;

Physical activity starts at home!
After a long summer, spent away from work and predominantly with my children it has occurred to me that I need a rest. Not a rest from them (although that would be welcome) but a physical rest. For 8 weeks I have taken part in almost every physical activity I can think of…
