YOUNG people from Coventry have enjoyed their summer holiday’s by joining in the city’s Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme.
The Olympics were recreated at Allesley Hall Primary School last week where over 100 students taking part in themed events and classic games.
The school hosted several days of HAF activities during the school holidays and has been popular with young people across the city.
The activities included a free meal for people who took part in the days.
Coun Kindy Sandhu, cabinet member, education and skills, said: “I love coming along to the activity days as it’s great to see so many children and young people having an enjoyable time, meeting new friends and coming together in the spirit of learning new skills, friendship and fun.
“The programme is clearly proving as popular, and much-needed, as ever as seen by how many families sign-up their children quickly to be part of the summer programme and I’m sure will be the case for the future programmes too later in the year.
“I was also particularly impressed by the way the school had engaged some of their former pupils as ambassadors to offer support to the current pupils in playing an active part in the activities, plus assisting those delivering activities on the day.”
The Olympic-themed sports day event was organised and led by local company, My Activities.
Mark Styles, manager added: “The Olympics Day is one of the most popular days at the club during the summer and it was made even more special with those attending this year.”
