Hi everyone!

Don’t forget to include P.E in your home learning. At the moment it is so important that we keep active – it is recommended children have at least 60 minutes of moderate exercise (such as walking) each day. There are so many health benefits that come from this! Watch the video below to hear how:

 

Virtual Sports Week 2020

Throughout our final week of term, children in school are going to be completing the ‘Mosaic Federation Lockdown Olympics’, and you can do it from home too! Watch the slideshow below to see all the exciting activities in store!


Every athlete deserves an award… download your own certificate below for your participation in Sports Week and for when you complete the Rep Challenge! Good Luck and enjoy the week!

 

 

Physical activity and active children:

  • have higher levels of well-being
  • are healthier
    • with stronger immune systems
  • are more resilient
  • have more active brains which learn better
  • have a better body image
    • which helps children feel better about themselves.

 

Scroll through our P.E page for links and ideas to get your children moving!

 

Youth Sports Trust

What’s Your Name workout

If you would prefer to do an activity that doesn’t follow a video, why not choose your own personal workout that is designed just for you! Select each letter of your name and that’s the activity you have to do. You could keep it simple by just doing your first name, challenge yourself with first name and surname OR super challenge with first, middle and surname!!
