Active Schools Information 2025-26

My name is Fiona Damen and I am your Active School Sports Coordinator.

My role is to work with the feeder primary school to St Augustine’s HS. I am here to support and facilitate physical activity in school and  in extracurricular  time. We offer every club for free and all clubs are taken by staff, coaches and parents . We are reliant on these amazing volunteers to provide a variety of clubs each term. All clubs are inclusive and accessible to all pupils.

My role also supports Bike  training for P6/7 and supporting the staff to deliver this each year. I also organise positive transition work such as the P6 Games and the Dance Cluster Showcase this year in June and other sporting events .

P7 leadership is another area supported and facilitated by myself and these pupils can then support younger pupils play  at lunchtimes  .

All this hard work by your staff and Head teacher have led to St Cuthberts being one of the 1st wave of primary schools to gain their Gold School Sports Award and indeed meeting the Minister of Sport and First Minister in recognition of this incredible  Gold Star standard of PE and Sport.

I look forward to working with you this year and if any parent would like to support a new club or one that is running please get in touch. even if just a 4 week running club it all makes such an impact !
