This year, the vision of the Young Ambassadors at Holyrood Secondary (Joseph and Olivia) was to expand the range of activities offered to the young people in their school. Pupils at the school have been enjoying the newly founded 'Get Active & Cook Club'.
Joseph explained: "Get Active & Cook is an 8-week programme where pupils have the opportunity to alternate weekly between working closely with a PT in the school fitness suite and the Home Economics department learning to cook 'fakeaway' style meals. This has proved really engaging for pupils who have been learning about the importance of nutrition and maintaining a physically active lifestyle - all whilst having fun!"
At the end of the 8-week programme pupils received a gym induction at the local Glasgow Life facility and are issued with a 6-week access card which allows pupils to access any of the facilities in their own time.
A further 6-month pass will be awarded to those who have used their access card on a regular basis.
