Children from 22 of Greater Manchester’s special educational needs schools will come together on 21 June to enjoy a day of fun and sporting activities, at Manchester’s Sport City, which can accommodate wheelchair users and all ability levels.
Each SEN school will be represented by a team of 10 children who will participate in a number of activities specifically designed in partnership with Sportshall Athletics. Children with autism, Down’s syndrome and a range of physical disabilities can all compete at the event regardless of age or ability.
The championship, sponsored by the Manchester branch of education staffing specialist, Randstad Education, will see pupils with disabilities between the ages of 5 – 16 enjoy a number of athletic events including long jump, javelin and sprint relays.
The activities from 10am-2pm will finish with a presentation where participating children will be awarded certificates and medals.
