A very warm welcome to the revised 2020 Sedbergh Courses programme. Sedbergh School is very proud of its summer programme and especially so in the planning of this summer with the additional challenges of Covid-19. Our summer courses will comprise of 3 main elements - Sport Skill Development, Inspiring Activities and most of all Fun!
After the long weeks on lockdown this will be a great opportunity for all children to get some dedicated time to develop multiple skill sets across many sports. Fresh air, socialising with other children under carefully supervised conditions, rebuilding a fitness base and taking part in extra activities will all contribute to a smooth transition back to school life in September. All set in the beautiful campus of Casterton, Sedbergh Prep School.
Sedbergh Courses and the Magic Academy, John Fletcher & Russell Earnshaw (World Leading Sport Coach Developers), will be supported by Rupert Bunday and Ellie Thompson to create an unforgettable ‘Sedbergh Experience’ for children of all abilities.
The programme will consist of a wide variety of sports based skills using elements of Cricket, Rugby, Hockey, Football, Athletics, to name a few. This will be complemented by an activities schedule to include Arts & Crafts, STEM and Performing Arts where children will be challenged to think creatively.
In addition to the sports and activities programme, all children will also take part in our Physical Literacy (PL) sessions. PL is current across all junior sports programmes and is defined as ".. being the ability to move with competence and confidence in a wide variety of physical activities in multiple environments that benefit the healthy development of the whole person".
