We are very excited to launch our Virtual Sports Day, as we can’t do our usual event as planned. This year Sports “Day” becomes Sports “2 weeks” and will begin on Monday 29th June (our original sports day)

To make sure we include everyone, the children will have until Friday 10th July to do their chosen events, after this date no more scores will be accepted. Please send your scores in via Google Classroom.

Those children lucky enough to be in school will be shown what to do by their teacher, but if you are learning at home we have carefully designed our events so everyone can join in.

KS2 Events

• Throw and catch a ball for 1 minute – this can be a football, tennis ball, whatever is available, 1 point for each successful catch.
• Squat jumps for 1 minute – 1 point for each jump.
• Shuttle sprints for 1 minute – put cones 5 metres apart and run between them, 1 point each time a cone is touched.
• Speed Bounce for 30 seconds – jump side to side over something, like a rolling pin, pillow or your favourite toy, 1 point each time your feet touch the mat.
• Relay – how fast can you do it – this could be 1 lap of your garden or park or another space.  As you will compete individually, instead of handing over a baton you have 2 ‘stops.’ At the first stop,  do 5 press ups, at the second, do 5 burpees. Send us your times and rough guess of how far you ran.

KS1 Events

KS1 Events will be similiar, but adapted to suit the different age groups. More details to follow on Google Classroom.

Children are free to attempt as many of these events as they wish (at least 2 would be great!).

To add an element of fun, there will be an extra 5 points given to anyone who does their events in an unusual outfit or location!
