This summer, Paris will host the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The world’s top athletes will compete on a global stage – and your pupils can get an unforgettable piece of the action!
Our 'Road 2 Paris' workshop provides a full day of Games-themed activities, delivered by qualified coaches and designed to introduce KS1 and KS2 pupils to brand-new sports.
You’ll also receive a huge range of extras, including downloadable session plans, digital assemblies, and the chance to win a school visit from an Olympian or Paralympian!
BRING OLYMPIC AND PARALYMPIC VALUES TO LIFE
We kicked off our ‘Road 2' workshops in 2012, bringing the buzz of the London Games to schools across the UK. Since then, we’ve helped pupils celebrate the spirit of Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
Along the way, we’ve motivated thousands of children to try new sports and live the Olympic and Paralympic values of excellence, determination, courage, equality, respect, friendship, and inspiration.
ACTIVE LEARNING AND READY-MADE RESOURCES
Our one-day 'Road 2 Paris' workshop is our best yet. Your pupils get stuck into inclusive sports rarely experienced at primary school age – with enthusiastic, qualified coaches by their side for every leap, laugh, and lightbulb moment.
After the session, our curriculum-focused resources carry the Games-inspired magic through History, Geography, PE, and more.
