Today, our school was buzzing with excitement as coaches from the a local boxing gym, GCB, joined us to deliver a series of BoxFit taster sessions for our pupils. And what a knockout experience it was!

The children were fully engaged – laughing, learning, and pushing themselves in ways many had never tried before. The sessions blended basic boxing techniques with fun, energetic fitness activities, giving every child a chance to experience the sport in a safe and supportive environment.

The coaches introduced the fundamentals of boxing footwork, simple combinations, and agility drills. They then mixed in high-energy fitness games that had the kids bobbing, weaving, jumping, and working together.

We’re incredibly grateful to the GCB team for giving their time, energy, and expertise.  The feedback from pupils has been overwhelmingly positive – many have already asked when the coaches are coming back!
