YOUNG athletes will gather for a training and team-building day before they represent their borough at a mini Olympics.

Members of Team Dartford at the Kent School Games will meet at Acacia Hall on May 25 for a variety of activities to prepare them for the big event next month.

Hillary Brett, who is organising the Dartford event, said: "We have several celebrities and the Dartford Mayor attending the day to act as motivational and inspirational role models for the children.

"We would like to make it as exciting as possible for the primary and secondary school children attending to really create team and high spirits on the day."
