The Hull FC Community Foundation’s Partner Schools Project is managing to continue its fantastic work despite the ongoing national lockdown.

Our coaches continue to visit primary schools across the city with the aim of injecting a little bit of fun and joy into school days which are now heavily affected by the impact of Covid-19.

While students can’t enjoy the company of their fellow pupils like in normal times due to social distancing and strict bubbles, our coaches are ensuring that youngsters still get their much needed fix of physical education in the safest way possible.

Louise Stone, of partner school Mountbatten Primary, said: “I’ve been so impressed with the way coach Bradley has run our after-school clubs recently.

“He knew I had concerns about how we could run it safely based on continual changing guidance from the government.  I went out to observe on the afternoon and I was very impressed with the way he had set up an area for each group to meet up in and then a separate area for each group to play in.

“This was easily recognisable by the different coloured cones areas.  I know from conversations with the children they are enjoying the activities as well.

“I was then able to feed this info back to our  head teacher and say that I had no concerns about us doing everything we could to keep the children safe.”
