As I’m sure most of you know, London will host the Olympic and the Paralympic Games in 2012. As a proud Londoner herself, Amanda’s obviously very keen on the notion of promoting anything that encourages kids to get fit and keep fit and of course to get involved in any way that they can to support what will be a great time for Londoners There are now only 4 years to go until the London Olympics begins, so it’s highly unlikely that anybody who’s presently attending one of Amanda’s toddler classes is going to end up on the podium in 2012, but there will be many different ways that youngsters and parents can get involved in the cultural events and activities at various London schools over the next 4 years and Amanda will be encouraging all her kids to do their bit.
There are things happening all over London. However, most new sporting facilities will be focused in four London boroughs:
- Hackney
- Newham
- Tower Hamlets
- Waltham Forest
There’ll obviously be lots of building and structural work going on in those areas in order to create the kind of stadia that a world-wide event like the Olympic Games demands. Hopefully much of what is being constructed will live-on for Londoners afterwards - as part of the London Olympic legacy!
