There's just three weeks to go until we kick off Inclusive Health Check Week! 🙌

So, what is the Inclusive Health Check? 🤔

It’s a free, online self-assessment tool embedded within the School Games programme, funded by Sport England, Department of Health and Social Care and the Department of Culture Media and Sport and endorsed by the Department for Education.

It helps schools reflect on whether their school sport and physical activity provision truly inclusive for pupils from underserved communities. 🙌

⛳ What a fantastic day at The Halifax Golf Club!

Today, we welcomed five Calderdale primary schools for a fun-filled golf taster day – the first golf event of its kind we’ve run as part of Calderdale School Games!

Pupils took part in seven different activities designed to develop their golf skills, with everyone showing great enthusiasm, determination and teamwork throughout the day.

A huge well done to our brilliant student leaders from LLS Online, who delivered each activity with confidence and professionalism. They did a fantastic job supporting and encouraging all of the participants.

A big thank you to Halifax Golf Club for their warm hospitality, providing an excellent venue and some truly incredible views for everyone to enjoy.

It was wonderful to see so many young people experiencing golf for the first time, and we hope it’s the start of many more opportunities to grow the sport across Calderdale!
