Over the course of the School year we offer great opportunities for pupils to engage in activities over lunch time or after school. These can vary on time of year and the colleague who is delivering the sessions, but we will keep them updated on this page for you to view.

Sport Scotland Young Ambassadors
Each year two pupils from every secondary school in Scotland have the opportunity to be selected as Young Ambassadors to promote sport and motivate and inspire other young people to get involved in sport in their schools, clubs and local communities.

 The role of a Young Ambassador

At the heart of the Young Ambassador programme is the principle that their views, and those of other young people are heard, valued and influence decision making; and that they are engaged in driving change.

In this context a Young Ambassador has two key roles:

• To promote sport, and motivate and inspire other young people to get involved in sport in a wide range of settings within their local communities, including schools, clubs and community organisations
• To influence key aspects of school sport

As role models and leaders for other young people, Young Ambassadors can have a pivotal role within their school and wider community. 

QR code to sign up is on notice board.
