Eastleigh Active - Easter
300+ young people got moving this Easter!
Thank you so much to those who booked an activity with us. We hope your kids enjoyed taking part in a new, exciting activity this Easter. From intense Nerf Warz to hitting a tennis balls, golf balls and hockey balls - a lot of fun was had!
Free swimming at Wildern Leisure Centre was popular as was the AquaRun session at Hamble Sports Complex.
For many, it was their first time trying these activities, and they really enjoyed themselves.
In addition, the Eastleigh Active programme supported a focused swimming initiative, offering a subsidised week of intensive lessons to a cohort of 22 pupils — 12 from Bursledon Junior School and 10 from Norwood Primary School. The aim was to build water confidence and assist the pupils in reaching the national curriculum target of swimming 25 metres before the end of Year 6.
A big thank you to the sports clubs, activity providers, facilities and Town and Parish Councils for their involvement.
The programme continues to demonstrate the Borough’s commitment to promoting physical activity and providing inclusive opportunities for young people to develop new skills and confidence. The Eastleigh Active will be back this Summer with even more action-packed activities!
