Seb takes part in a sports festival at St Thomas More school
International Inspiration is London 2012's official international sports legacy programme. It aims to use the power of physical education, sport and play to enrich the lives of millions of children and young people of all abilities in twenty countries across the world, including Trinidad and Tobago.
Seb Coe, Chair of LOCOG, said: ‘It's fantastic to see for myself the benefits that schools are experiencing from being twinned with other schools in the world through the International Inspiration programme. When we won the bid, we were clear about our aims - to use the power of the London 2012 Games to inspire young people around the world. What I've witnessed today are excellent examples of how our vision is coming to life.
‘It is also fantastic to see how both Hornsey School for Girls and St Thomas More RC School are using their experiences of the International Inspiration programme to help bring the Olympic and Paralympic Values to life in their school and I was very proud to welcome them to the Get Set network. I look forward to hearing about more of their great work.’
