Five Year 6 pupils have been selected to be this years sports ambassadors. They attended a training afternoon at Plymouth Life Centre, run by sports leaders from across the city, in order to pick up the skills needed for the role.

She spoke to the children about the importance of volunteering and leadership in national sport, and of course showed off her gold medal!
