Kicking off on 10 June, Euro 2016 features more teams than ever, giving a rare chance for nations like Albania, Iceland and Hungary to compete on the big stage, as well as home nations Northern Ireland and Wales, and our neighbours Republic of Ireland.

The final takes place in Paris on 10 July where England will surely be, er, watching from home. But let’s hope they go as far as they can, eh?

Host nation France will open the tournament against Romania, while the usual suspects Germany, Spain, Italy are all there along with Belgium, Austria, Portugal, Switzerland, Poland, Croatia and more.

It’s a great chance to get your kids engaged with a whole host of lessons on PE, geography, languages, literacy, maths and more – and here are some free resources to get you going.

And if you needed more of an excuse to watch the tournament, here’s a GIF of French goal hunk Olivier Giroud:
