Lions Roar
We are again grateful to Will McKeller, the Design and Technology Teacher from Fordingbridge Junior School who helped coach teams at the school to participate in last year's competition and all the children and staff at the school who participated. Their designs and presentations were imaginative and thoughtful.
The Lions Roar 2024 Competition is now open for applications from all Junior Schools and Ringwood & Fordingbridge Lions Club will meet the entrance costs (usually £170.00) for the first four schools who register their interest with us on a first come first served basis. There are teacher packs, predesigned lesson plans and videos to make it as easy as possible for schools to help their children think big and be creative.
This is an inspirational and fun learning experience, enabling your students to discover how to use their imagination in exciting new ways, learn how to work in teams, develop their communication and presentation skills and boost their self-confidence and self-esteem. Fully prepared lesson plans are available that cover many different areas of the curriculum for KS2 including literacy, maths, science, Design Technology, Citizenship and PSHE.
ROAR 2024 Introductory video explains what is involved:
Our Congratulations go to Alfie, Alex, Hugo, Oliver and Sam from Fordingbridge Junior School who reached the finals in the ROAR 2023 competition with their idea, Meet up, Eat up, Clean up. Their video presentation was well presented and addressed a situation our society is facing these days, being meeting your friends (or making new friends), while you meeting them you have something to eat and socialise and most importantly you are out and about while cleaning up the community by picking up litter.
