According to Frank Watene, in Trust Newsletter, he is instructing 500 local schoolchildren who will perform the Tongan "Haka" before the match at the Shay. Well done Frank.

I've been told that the West Stand is reserved of a 'Schools Project'. Anyone know what this means? Both of my kids are at J&I school and we've heard nowt. Is the Skircoat stand made up of free kids tickets or organised trips through schools? The difference is that free kids tickets might see 35 kids take up the offer, V's organised kids trips through schools with commitment that will hopefully fill the stand.

Hope it's the latter, and if it is how do you get an invite. My 8 year old Fax season ticket holder son would much prefer a day out with his mates than me and his Grandad!

Probably Frank hasn`t enough time to get around all these schools , I am fuming as the Giants have been twice into my local school in the last 3 months and others in the Fax area taking their mascot etc with them.Huddersfield are doing a Bradford I`m afraid but the thing is they have a huge budget where as our Club can only do the best they can with the amount they get.It`s a pity we cannot get some sponsorship that would be child orientated that would sponsor these things and get the players out to schools with freebies and stuff.

Colin, the only way we find out if we are child minding is to go into KCP club house and see what future social events are chalked on the board.
