Last week, our GCSE and A Level P.E. students were extremely fortunate to receive a visit and talk from double Paralympic gold medallist and 11 time World Champion Kayaker, Emma Wiggs MBE.
Emma gave an incredibly inspiring and heartening talk about her journey from being an able-bodied sports woman to losing the use of her legs and subsequently becoming a full time professional athlete. Emma provided our students with some excellent strategies to achieve their best in each day, both in their academic lives but also in their sporting and personal lives as well. Emma discussed and emphasised the importance of human psychology in order to reach one’s potential.
