On your marks, 'Get Set'...

Over the next few months our students will be focusing on preparations for our Olympic celebrations in June - 16-25 June.

Our project is the largest, most ambitious school-based Olympics event in the UK and we are looking forward to extending a warm Brigshaw Trust welcome to more than 220 visitors from 14 countries across Europe, Asia, Africa and the wider world.

Our project will build upon the Olympic legacy of internationalism, excellence and friendship and children and staff from schools across our Trust are making plans to offer a whole range of fun and cultural activities including a Zumba world record challenge, cabarets and concerts, Olympic and Paralympic games, together with visit to York and a civic reception and youth celebration when the Torch arrives in Leeds. There will also be lots of time to get to know our visitors and forge firm friendships as  families host our guests for the week-long event.

Share in the spirit

A fantastic community Gala Day on Saturday 23 June will bring celebrations to a close.

We’d to invite you  to join us at Brigshaw for a day of fabulous family fun in celebration of the Olympic and co-operative values.  We’ll have music, games, stalls and food to mark this momentous occasion and we really hope you can come along to share in the Olympic spirit.

Our project is supported by the Get Set Network, Leeds City Council, Castleford Tgers, The Holiday Inn, the Youth Service and the Garforth Lions.
