North East Herts MP Oliver Heald visited Icknield Walk School Royston as part of National School Sport Week, sponsored by Lloyd’s TSB. The Week is designed to increase PE and sport ahead of the 2010 Olympics. Icknield Walk School has played a key part in the activities and Oliver attended a sports session with Year 2 and was able to present the Cup to the winning team.
Commenting, Oliver Heald said, “I am a strong supporter of sport in schools and applaud the work of all at Icknield Walk School. It is also good to know that National School Sport Week is gaining sponsors such as Lloyds TSB and the Youth Sport Trust.
“I particularly enjoyed the parachute raising activities which the youngsters also found great fun.”
