THIS GIRL CAN 2026 💜

An amazing day on Thursday welcoming 200 Year 9 girls, coming together to move, connect and discover what they’re capable of!

The energy was just incredible. Girls trying boxing, ice skating, weightlifting and wheelchair basketball, stepping outside their comfort zones. Add in a glow rave, big smiles, fearless dancing, and finishing with the joy and laughter of The Colour Run 🌈✨

This event has been and will always be about confidence growing, friendships forming, barriers breaking down and girls leaving feeling happier, stronger and more connected.

A huge thank you to YPO for supporting the event and for providing a football for every girl to take home, enabling them to continue their physical activity journeys away from the event ⚽💫 what a special treat.

These Girls Can. And they really really did. 💪

What a fantastic day at the Arches Partnership Games 2026! 🧡

We were delighted to welcome over 600 pupils from 23 schools to EIS Ice Sheffield and Don Valley Bowl for a day packed with new sporting experiences, teamwork and fun.

The event got off to an amazing start with a brilliant opening ceremony performance from the Hinde House Cheerleaders. Pupils then had the opportunity to try a huge range of activities including judo, boxing, speed stacks, rugby, teambuilding challenges, cricket, cheerleading, hockey, breakdancing, archery, BMX, ice skating and curling!

A huge thank you to all our incredible activity providers, staff and the outstanding sports leaders from King Edward VII School (Sheffield), Forge Valley School & Sixth Form, Hinde House 2-16 Academy and Fir Vale Academy who helped deliver and support the event throughout the day.

Days like today create life long memories. We are so proud of all our participants today and we hope every child left feeling happy, confident, inspired and motivated to continue to be physically active! 🤸‍♂️

We’ve been on the road today delivering over 150 Panini World Cup Sticker Albums to our schools! 🚗

Yesterday should have been our first ever Arches World Cup, where every competing school was allocated a country taking part in this years international tournament. They were set to play a full day of fixtures to see who would be crowned our first ever Arches World Cup champions and lift the trophy! 🏆

Unfortunately, the weather had other ideas 😢

We were still determined to inspire and engage more children, using the competition to help us. Every player who was set to play has now received a panini World Cup sticker book and a selection of stickers thank you to the incredibly kind donations from Morrisons Hillsborough store 🫶

We hope everyone still enjoys the magic of the World Cup and our books and stickers help just a little bit along the way! 🤩
