Schools take part in winter style Olympics

Disabled athletes from four Liverpool schools took part in an unforgettable winter Olympics-style event at Fazakerley High School organised by the Liverpool Schools Sports Partnership (LSSP). Pupils from Elleray Park, Meadowside, Palmerston and Princes Primary School battled it out in a range of indoor sports including the bobsled, the luge and hockey dribble, with assistance provided by sports leaders from Fazakerley High School. Organiser Jess McNally, from LSSP, said: “It’s been a brilliant event and everybody has really enjoyed themselves. It is fantastic that children with severe learning difficulties from across Merseyside are able to experience competitive situations in sport that are specific to their ability level.”
