Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, will attend the London School Games and urge children, teachers and parents not to miss out on the chance for their school to share in 125,000 free tickets for the 2012 Games.
To meet the Mayor's drive to ensure that one in eight London school children has an opportunity to experience the Games, London schools and colleges must join London 2012's 'Get Set' network by the 16th December.
The Mayor will also join Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt and Olympic and Paralympic stars Gail Emms and David Weir to meet some of the 750 youngsters competing in the Schools Games Festival in a range of sports including tennis, judo, boccia and badminton.
