It may be that they are really shy and reserved, they may struggle to make friends or maybe they find teamwork tricky. It may also be that they have a physical disability or have a neurological difference. Whatever the reason, all are welcomed and what a JOY it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dan asked me to come to the event with a criticising eye. He wanted me to spot any improvements that needed to be made or what they could do better moving forward. Well, I walked around the event, speaking to teachers, TA\u2019s, parents\/carers and the kids and had nothing but positive feedback.\u00a0\u00a0The Event was beautifully organised, extremely welcoming, fantastically inclusive and, for me, very moving. What choked me up the most was the Dorset leadership team trained by Mr Moody himself. The team is made up of school pupils, some as young as year 7. They not only supported the kids but created a lot of the games themselves. Just EPIC!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We at Awesome Archie would HIGHLY recommend this AWESOME event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.awesomearchie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PXL_20221020_152202896-Large-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.awesomearchie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PXL_20221020_152202896-Large-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.awesomearchie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PXL_20221020_152202896-Large-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.awesomearchie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PXL_20221020_152202896-Large-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.awesomearchie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PXL_20221020_152202896-Large.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankyou Mr Moody and Mrs Tabor for your AWESOME work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today my daughter was privileged to be invited to Dorset school games \u201cDare to Believe\u201d event at\u00a0TGS.
