Primary Inclusion New Age Kurling 06/07/2023

Thursday 06^th July 2023 – Another great afternoon of sport at Tor Bridge High with our sports leaders running a New Age Kurling event for children in mainstream and special schools. We had 6 schools with us today: Beechwood/ Victoria Road/Mary Dean’s/Bickleigh Down/Cann Bridge and Marlborough. New Age Kurling is a target-based sport that has been adapted from curling so that it can be played indoors, on a flat surface. Each player delivers a ‘stone’ towards the target at the other end by sliding it smoothly across the floor. The score is then determined by the number of stones closest to the centre of the target. After some time for practice, we got straight into it. These inclusive events are all about meeting new people, trying different activities and most importantly, having some fun. We had some excited children and some nervous children when they first arrived but once we were underway, it was great to see so many smiles and children getting to know others from different schools.  A huge thank you to our sports leaders – yet another successful inclusion event ladies – well done.
