InspirationALL - educational resource
![Inspired by](https://sthelens.gov.uk/image/4798/Inspired-by/gi-responsive__100.jpg?m=1664807786053)
It's a collection of free and engaging resources to help teachers deliver rugby league lessons in a fun and exciting way. We've worked with Saints Community Development Foundation to promote it to our borough's primary and secondary schools.
Working with the RFL, the tournament's legacy project, InspirationALL, created an online portal where teachers accessed a full programme to teach tag rugby league for primary school students, or 9s rugby league for secondary school pupils.
The programme includes an easy-to-digest video, so those who haven't experienced the sport before can learn the basics in the easiest way possible. There are also lesson plans, fixtures templates, certificates and video messages from tournament ambassadors to help inspire pupils.
World Cup-themed school menu - 17-21 October
The menu focused on the cultural foods associated with the countries that will be represented during the games being hosted at the Totally Wicked Stadium - Australia, Italy, Tonga, Papua New Guinea and Wales - as well as hosts England.
Dishes included spaghetti bolognese, pork loin, coconut and sweet potato stew, Glamorgan sausage and fruity meringue.

Each school was assigned a nation to follow for the tournament, with Saints Community Development Foundation providing banners to be placed outside their school.
The focus of the competition was for schools to submit a piece of artwork about the culture and heritage of the nation they are following.
