Here are Isaac’s favourite targets from his Gold Passport…
My 2 favourite passport targets!
My first favourite passport target to do was the swimming gala target. I decided to compete in a swimming gala for the school and I made it a passport target to do it. The swimming gala was very fun and I got to swim in 2 races. My favourite race was the freestyle race where you could swim any stroke you wanted. For that race I did front crawl. The other race I did was a breaststroke race.
My other one is when I asked a Paralympian about his sport. A Paralympian came into school and luckily I was picked to go and see him and I got an autograph from him. I learnt how he had started running and how he had learned he was faster than most people. It also shows even if you have some medical issues when you’re younger it still doesn’t mean you can’t do stuff which you want to do.
