2 . As a young boy, I loved being active. All I really wanted to do was to _______ my football shoes and play out with my friends. As I’ve got older, my love for physical activity hasn’t declined. This is why I was so _______ to be involved in the Creating Active Schools framework.

In the early stages of my time at Peel Park Primary, my two main _______ were to reform the PE course and to increase our participation in competitive sports. We achieved these _______in a short time.

Just as I’ll never love art, many of our _______ will never love football or tennis. That’s why

_______ a way to move, which works for each child, is vital. What we can do is get opportunities for every child to love being physically _______.

We therefore _______ our own school Bike Library. We have already received many rental_______. We also thought about how to arrange the school day, allowing all children to ________ our equipment freely and easily. Besides, we also have a “PA” lesson which has a total ________ choice for the children. They can ________ on the trees, go on the bikes and play games with their friends. This change from thinking has ________ participation in the “traditional PE” from pupils, who typically didn’t love sports. A win, win!
