Greenhouse Basketball Programme
We are delighted to partner with Greenhouse Sports, an organization that uses sports to empower young people from all backgrounds to reach their full potential. Through this exciting collaboration, we are committed to helping our students develop both athletically and personally, fostering key values such as resilience, teamwork, and leadership.
As part of this partnership, we proudly host the Greenhouse Sports Basketball Programme at our school. This programme provides students with access to high-quality basketball coaching from expert coaches who also act as mentors. With a focus on long-term development, the basketball programme encourages students to build confidence, improve their skills, and learn the importance of perseverance and determination.
The Greenhouse Sports Basketball Programme at Harris Academy St John’s Wood is about much more than just the game. It offers students the chance to enhance their mental well-being, discipline, and personal growth in a supportive and inclusive environment. The coaches, who form meaningful relationships with our students, help them overcome challenges both on and off the court, ensuring they are well-prepared for success in school and in life.
Our partnership with Greenhouse Sports is also a key part of building a positive school culture. Through the basketball programme, students learn valuable life skills such as teamwork, respect, and commitment. These values align with our vision of developing well-rounded individuals ready to face future challenges.
We are proud to offer this unique opportunity, particularly for students who may not otherwise have had access to regular sports coaching. Greenhouse Sports provides them with role models and mentors who inspire them to excel, both in sports and in their academic pursuits.
The impact of this partnership is already clear, as students benefit from improved physical fitness, enhanced teamwork, and a stronger sense of community. We are excited to continue working alongside Greenhouse Sports and look forward to seeing even more of our students grow through the basketball programme.
