Wolverhampton's Yo! Wolves Easter activity programme was a great success with 12,400 places available over the school holidays, funded by the Department for Education.

 

Over 35 local providers hosted activity sessions, including food, at 48 locations all over the city. A wide variety of opportunities meant there was something for everyone, with children and young people enjoying martial arts, drama, arts and crafting, cinema visits, sports activities, AI and coding skills, music workshops, life-saving first aid and much more.  

 

Among the many providers who delivered holiday events was Soccer Coaching 2000, offering football coaching and multi sports at Stow Heath Primary School.

 

Councillor Jacqui Coogan, the City of Wolverhampton Council’s Cabinet Member for Children, Young People and Education, said: “I was delighted to visit Soccer 2000 Coaching and see how much the children were learning and enjoying themselves.


“It’s great to get out and see for myself some of our local providers, volunteers and organisations which are working so hard with us to continue to build a huge range of opportunities for our city’s children and young people through Yo! Wolves.”


Josh Wright, Senior Coach from Soccer Coaching 2000, added: “We are very pleased to be part of the Yo! Wolves programme providing a safe environment for children and young people to learn new skills, get fit and socialise during the holidays.”Soccer Coaching 2000 is one element of the Yo! Wolves programme, offering hundreds of activities available across the city to children and young people, including those with a Holiday Activities Fund (HAF) code. 


There is also a range of activities that are inclusive for children and young people with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND).

Councillor Coogan added: “We know how difficult school holidays can be for many families at the best of times, and we hope our Yo! Wolves programme is giving parents a little extra support. So, get ready for a summer full of fun, making new friends, learning new skills, and enjoying new adventures.”
