The youngsters – Year 6 pupils from Southwater Junior Academy and Castlewood Primary School – were nominated by their schools as deserving special recognition for their personal contribution to the community.

Neighbourhood Warden Dominic Woodhead said: “Within minutes these young people were not only standing on the paddle boards like they had been practising for years but doing summersaults from them into the lake.
“These activities develop so many social skills such as collaborative working, communication, leadership, self-reliance and confidence, all while they are having a great time.”
