Portsmouth

Although running is a big part of my work, it is also something that I have loved doing since I was 11 years old. Even as a toddler, I would stand and watch people running round our local track before being taken to the nearby park! As a teenager, I trained three times a week on the track and, from about 16 years old, also added a weights session to my training. Most weekends would be spent racing at one event or another and I loved every minute of it. In the beginning I started doing 100m and 200m, quickly followed by 75m and 80m hurdles as I progressed through the age groups. In the U17 age category, I had the opportunity to do 300m and 300m hurdles and it became apparent that I was more successful over the slightly longer distances. Once I moved up to senior level, I was asked to do a 400m hurdles for a point at one of the league races. I (literally) jumped at the chance and never looked back! Over the next few years, this became my event until I stopped doing athletics training in my early twenties. This photo was taken at one of my last 4x100m relay events, which the observant amongst you will realise this is also the image used to make my logo!

lfi collège et lycée

The LFI offers a unique education. From primary school on, the pupils are immersed in a multicultural and bilingual environment. Innovative and creative teaching programmes allow the children to be educated in favourable learning conditions. LFI follows the teaching programmes of the French Department for National Education, while taking into account the local environment and the pupils themselves. Mastery of the French language, the teaching language, and its expansion are at the heart of the syllabus. Workshops for small groups in the primary school and junior cycle allow the pupils for whom it is not their mother tongue to make rapid progress. In the same way, the modern languages policy emphasises English, the language of our host country. Every pupil from the youngest up follows an individual progression. In 5e (First Year), the pupils join the Eurocampus, run jointly with our partner St. Kilian’s. French, German, Irish and other pupils take classes together. At the end of 3e (Third Year), the children sit two exams, the French Diplôme National de Brevet (DNB) and the Irish Junior Certificate. In this way LFI as a school develops European citizenship every day and offers its pupils a real road to success. In the classes of senior cycle, the pupils can continue an international programme with the European Section or the International Section (Option Internationale du Baccalauréat, OIB section américaine).

wild wonder and wisdom

undefined

Kathy King is a Science and Psychology specialist who has worked with a variety of vulnerable groups including young people with special educational needs, including social, emotional and behavioural problems, and the homeless. She is passionate about showing others the power of being active in nature and using outdoor activities as a tool to improve wellbeing. Her research has proven that participation in a 6-week Forest School programme can increase attendance and reduce exclusion rates from mainstream school. Applying the fundamentals of the holistic Forest School approach in all that she does, Kathy believes this can create positive changes in behaviour. Kathy made a life-changing decision to leave teaching and enrol on an outdoor instructor programme after experiencing high levels of work-related stress and anxiety. The 2-day a week course provided an opportunity to master new skills and focus on what she considered to be most important in life. It was on the water that the idea for the Wild Camp Training Programme was born. This is a project aimed at young women who are currently out of education, employment and/or training (N.E.E.T) and is designed to empower and increase physical and mental health. Since then, the charity has evolved to deliver after school clubs, forest school sessions, holiday clubs, 1-1 outdoor activity sessions and group days out.
