Couch to 2K Running Club

After-school Running Club got off to a fantastic start today, with an impressive 30 pupils taking part. This marks the beginning of our Couch to 2K programme, which will gradually build the pupils’ confidence and stamina before they take part in the St Helens Park Run on Sunday 7th December.

The session began in the hall, where pupils enjoyed some warm-up games designed to get everyone moving and working together. Once warmed up, they headed outside to take part in more activities and begin some gentle running. The wet weather didn’t dampen their spirits, and the pupils showed great enthusiasm and determination throughout.

It was wonderful to see so many children encouraging each other, having fun and staying active. The club provides a great opportunity for pupils to build fitness, develop resilience, and experience a real sense of achievement as they progress.

We look forward to seeing how they grow in confidence over the coming weeks as they work towards completing the 2K Park Run challenge.

Well done to all the children, and the staff contributing their time to run this after-school club!
