Welcome to Active Schools Prestonpans

Our aim is to offer more opportunities for children in the Prestonpans primary school area to take part in sport and physical activity, while promoting active living and developing pathways to sport within the local community.

Working in partnership with our local schools and other community organisations, we achieve this aim with the support of a network of volunteers, coaches, parents, carers and school staff who deliver extra-curricular sports activities before and after school, during break and lunch times, and across the wider community.

Volunteers are at the heart of Active Schools, and we rely on our volunteers to help us provide free opportunities for children to be active and take part in sport at their school and in the local community. To learn more about volunteering with Active Schools and how we could support you, please email ssands@elcschool.org.uk

FREE Access to Active East Lothian Paid Activities

Active Schools activities are free to all. Active East Lothian activities have a fee but are free to pupils who are care experienced, young carers, and/or registered for free school meals with East Lothian Council. All support is delivered confidentially.

For more information, please see the information in your free school meals registration pack or contact Stewart Sands, Active Schools Coordinator at ssands@elcschool.org.uk

Activity Support

We aim to make all of our activities inclusive to all and understand that everyone has differing needs and requirements. We will try to make reasonable adjustments where possible and will always be open to engaging with pupils and parents/carers to ensure this happens.

In our booking form we will ask you a few questions to share any information that will help us provide any additional support.
