How does your innovation currently get kids (or how might it get kids) engaged in physical activity? How would your idea or project potentially be implemented during the school day?
Our organisation is already running the LIVE SAFE PLAY SAFE PROJECT and THE LETS TALK MAGAZINE PROJECT in some primary schools since 2007.These two project are aimed at teaching primary 5 and 6 pupile reproductive health issues and the magazine they write stories that are interesting to young people which we print and sell to them at a very low cost.So since we already have existing partnerships with these schools it will be easy to carry out the PLAY SAFE PROJECT in these primary schools where we are already working.

We will support young people to achieve their potential and encourage them to make a meaningful contribution to the society in which they live through the use of fun and sports especially football. We will achieve this through a structured and balanced youth development sports curriculum that supports,
Advancement of Education – learning of basic health issues through the use of fun keeping the body fit and healthy for daily activities.
Advancement of Citizenship and Community Development – develop leadership skills, enterprising values and community spirit - helping to create a stronger, more vibrant and prosperous community.
We shall carry out the exercises atleast 4hour every week with each kid of primary 5 and 6 involved.
