Respect Programme
4/12/2024
Today we finished up our 4 week Respect Programme run by Martin Connell. Martin used the theme of sport and games to engage the children. The children were encouraged to stop and think before reacting, how to deal with frustration, how to lean on others for help, to work as a team and think about who is in their "team of life".
We were very excited to be joined by Pablo Blackwood who is an ex professional football player for Queens Park Rangers. Pablo talked to the children about when injury prevented him from fulfilling his dream of being a football player, he returned to education and completed studies in Sports Science and Sports Psychology. He delivers the Respect Programme around London and also trains players young and old.
The children really benefited from this programme and we are very grateful to the Dolmen Centre for facilitating this for us.
