A Chance to Shine!
At Beresford Memorial First School, part of the Talentum Learning Trust, they are committed to providing our pupils with a well-rounded education that nurtures their physical, mental, and social development. This is why they are thrilled to have partnered with the English Cricket Board to offer their students the "A Chance to Shine" programme.
Engaging Pupils in Sport
Through this exciting initiative, pupils from Nursery to Year 4 have had the opportunity to participate in specialist cricket sessions led by experienced coaches. These engaging days have allowed the young learners to develop their cricket skills, while also fostering their love of physical activity and team sports.
Aligning with Our Values
At the Talentum Learning Trust, we believe in the power of aspiration, compassion, and integrity. The "A Chance to Shine" programme perfectly aligns with our core values, as it encourages our pupils to:
- Aspire to reach their full potential in sports and physical activities
- Demonstrate Compassion by supporting and encouraging their peers
- Uphold Integrity by playing fairly and exhibiting good sportsmanship
By offering these enriching experiences, we are empowering our pupils to believe in themselves, succeed in life, and aspire to be the best they can be.
Opportunities for Further Involvement
We are thrilled to see the enthusiasm and joy the pupils have expressed during the "A Chance to Shine" sessions. If any parents or carers are interested in their child continuing their cricket journey, we encourage you to explore the junior training opportunities available at Ashcombe Park Cheddleton (6:30 pm every Friday) and Leek Cricket Club.
For more information or to express your interest, please speak with Mrs. Housley-Tatton, who is leading this exciting initiative at the school.
