Working with Parents

The flag is a whole-school initiative so parental involvement is essential. Ideas for new activities to complement our Active School Flag initiative are very welcome. Please submit your suggestions via email to:

We invite sports clubs, athletes and physical activity providers from the local community to talk to the boys and girls or to give taster sessions of their activity and we constantly try to raise awareness of the huge variety of ways in which people can be physically active.
