Published Tue 25 Jun 2024

Solomon Islands Hockey Federation (SIHF) as a partner had visited school principals to gain permission for the Hin4H Program to be introduced from April 2024.

The Hin4H staff had training on delivery and safeguarding of children in February in preparation for their visits. From April after completing training, the huge push was started, with the team visiting 10 primary schools and 8 secondary schools by the end of May.

The sessions involved 438 girls, and 426 boys, 50 teachers, and 12 volunteers, at the various venues both in Honiara and at Outreach Communities. Each school received 4 sessions. The followup to these sessions is a school holiday program which is being run in June.
