British gymnast Craig Heap led an inspirational assembly
for us on Thursday. Craig talked about his childhood and
how he started doing gymnastics because his sister went.
He told children that his mum had desperately wanted to be
a tennis player when she was younger but had been told by
her Dad that, ‘people round here don’t do that kind of thing’.
When Craig was offered the chance to leave home to train
with the national team she encouraged him to follow his
dreams. He described how difficult it had been at times but
how proud he had been when he won medals in world
championships. Craig encouraged our children to be aspi-
rational about their futures and reminded them how impor-
tant resilience was when times were tough. Our picture
shows Craig holding some of his medals with children who
he rewarded for their contributions during the assembly.
The picture also shows Ted Batey our sports Specialist
Partner. Craig sent us a message last night saying “Great
School Staff and Pupils, keep up the good work!”
