2012 World Sport Day

Monday 25 June 2012

London 2012 World Sport Day, presented by Lloyds TSB in England and Wales and Bank of Scotland in Scotland, is a major part of Get Set goes global. It's happening on Monday 25 June 2012.

It's an exciting opportunity for your school/college to celebrate the world's arrival in the UK for the greatest festivals of sport, and all the Values and Games-related work you have been doing.

Branded tools and resources will be available to help schools create and host an international celebration that embraces the teams and athletes of the 205 Olympic and 170 Paralympic teams. The aim is to celebrate the multiculturalism of the school's local community, and to showcase the sports and cultures of their chosen Olympic and Paralympic teams.

As part of the celebration, your school will be able to access the following World Sport Day resources:

• An event pack full of branded materials to help decorate schools for the opening celebration and their own international celebrations
• Activity ideas for schools to embrace the cultures of their supported teams throughout the life of a school
• An exciting toolkit and case studies to guide teachers and students in the planning of their opening celebration and international celebrations
• Create your own school goodies and decorations by using our 'we're a supporter' kits for your supported Olympic and Paralympic team

World Sport Day is the opening celebration for Lloyds TSB National School Sport Week and is delivered by the Youth Sport Trust.

Schools can now request a London 2012 World Sport Day event pack full of branded goodies to help dress your school. Event packs will be delivered in the Spring Term.
