Children
from 15 Primary Schools in West Penwith have just competed in an area Tag Festival
at the Pirates Mennaye Field training base.
It
proved a busy event, with all of the children enjoying a competition from which
St. Just, Sennen, St. Hilary and Trythall Schools qualified for a West Cornwall
tournament to be held in Redruth on the 4th June.
South
West finals will follow on the 10th June, with successful teams then qualifying
for the Child Victims of Crime Tag Rugby Festival final which is to be held at
Rugby School, Warwickshire, in July.
The 'CVOC' Festival
is the only National Tag Rugby Festival in the UK, promotes children's safety,
health and welfare and encourages their social inclusion and community involvement.
The programme also helps to bring local communities together
by enabling police forces to get involved with local schools and work with them
to improve community relations.
