On Thursday 19th September, eight Year 5 and 6 girls took part in a ‘This Girls Can’ event at Harlow Leisure Zone. The afternoon involved the girls participating in three different activities all of which were a little different to their regular PE lessons. To the girls’ excitement, they spent their first fifty minutes in the Urban Limitz trampoline centre, which came out top of the list for most of the girls. We then moved on to a mixed martial arts session where the girls learnt to protect themselves whilst trying out new techniques for some of the key skills. Finally, the girls took part in a dance session led by Hip Hop Bop, learning a fantastic routine followed by a performance to the rest of the group. All in all, the day was thoroughly enjoyed by the girls and hopefully, they will continue to spread their wings, trying different sport and activities to stay active.
