Peace Through Sport – ICS Teachers, Parents and Children meet HRH Prince Feisal!

HRH Prince Feisal Al Hussein, President of the Jordan Olympic Committee (JOC), made history last week when he opened the first Peace Through Sport Camp in Al Hussein Youth City, Amman, for leaders of youth from around the world to help them use sport to bridge the differences in their divided communities.

ICS was delighted to be chosen to take part in this inaugural camp last Thursday at 2:30pm. Despite the short notice, 21 children accompanied Miss Dunn, Coach Wa’el and I to take part in an exciting treasure hunt and some students stayed later to attend a skills training session for football.

ICS pupils joined with 70 coaches from Jordan, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Palestine, Iraq, Sudan and Sri Lanka – including 25 women and four different religions - from seven countries. The 10 –day pilot camp comes under the global spotlight following the initiative’s announcement earlier this year which was met by worldwide acclaim as a serious project that can help to make a difference.

Delegates are here in Jordan to take part in an intensive training programme comprising practical sporting sessions; peace education and specialist training in conflict resolution amongst young people.

“This a very proud yet humble occasion for me; proud because Peace Through Sport carries on the great Jordanian tradition of actually implementing peace programmes; humble, because these inaugural Peace Through Sport delegates are giving up so much time and energy to become pioneers of peace around the world. I am determined that with their help, Peace Through Sport will make a real difference in a troubled world”.

The treasure hunt comprised of many activities around Sports City involving various mental and physical skills. Our ICS pupils were fantastic, charging around enthusiastically and mixing well with coaches they had just been introduced to. Two of our pupils from Year 6, Michael and Laura, were in the winning team and….believe-it-or-not…won mobile phones!

Another highlight of our evening was, of course, meeting HRH Prince Feisal. Parents were thrilled when HRH circulated after his interview, shaking hands and speaking about the events planned.
