Year 5 pupils designed and pitched their ideas on how best to tackle the very low levels of adult activity levels within the school's local community. Year 5 pupils decided that the sports hall would be the ideal place to create an activity hub space if the sports hall was given a huge makeover to make it an attractive space to be active. The pupils identified that new flooring, wall art and new equipment would make it a space that could be used for many different sport and wellbeing activities for individuals and groups of all ages. The school and the LiFE MAT Trust set up a panel to asses the pupil's ideas including senior trust staff and an external marketing director. From the presentations the best design ideas were chosen and a brief created to achieve a transformation of the existing tired and unattractive space into a vibrant, welcoming fully equipped space suitable for many different activities that would entice the community to take part in different activities.

What we'll deliver:

  • new wall art design on each of the four sports hall walls
  • new equipment to enable many different types of activity to take place
  • new sports hall floor (LiFE MAT Funding)

Why it's a great idea:

The new activity space will demonstrate to the pupils at Braunstone Frith Primary Academy borders two Leicester City Ward areas, New Parks and Braunstone that are areas within the 1% most deprived areas of England (indices-of-deprivation-in-leicester-briefing-on-implications-2019.pdf). This project will show pupils that they can be agents of change in their local community. The project will contribute to raising the significantly low levels of activity within the local population. The project will also support the Trust's vision to see each of our schools to be seen as a leader of, and vital to, its local community and fundamental to the identity of its surrounding community. This project will position the school as a resource for use by the local community that can bring about other positive change in other areas such as health, crime and education.

Steps to get it done:

  • Installing a new sports hall floor
  • Painting the new wall art design on each of the four sports hall wall
  • Installing the new line markings on the new sports hall floor
  • Installing the new height adjustable wall mounted basketball backboards and hoops
