The Partner Schools are Oakfield Community Primary School, Holy Family Catholic Primary School, All Saints Upton Primary, Lunt’s Heath Primary School, Halsnead Primary School and St John Fisher Catholic Primary School.
Liam Clark, Head of Community for Widnes Vikings hailed the success of the partner school programme, “As a club we are elated to have these schools commit to the partnership over the academic year. We are excited to offer great opportunities to the whole school and open opportunities for pupils through various activities and experiences.
“The Partner Schools concept is not just about Rugby League, it is about using the ever-growing brand of Widnes Vikings and their high-quality community staff to engage, educate and inspire pupils through sporting and educational activity. For our whole team it is incredibly rewarding for schools to recognise the impact we are having by renewing as a Partner School or joining the programme for the academic year.”
There is still time for schools to get involved in our Partner School Programme or other school programmes. For more information please contact James Owen, Community and Schools Co-Ordinator, via email on jameso@widnesvikings.co.uk or call 0151 495 2250 (option 5).
