Ash Field Virtual Sports Day

As we enter the final half term, I wanted to try and recreate some kind of sports day so that even through we are apart our pupils can still be part of a team as they do their movement and exercise.

Over the next few weeks we will be holding a Virtual Sports Day which will be a series of challenges where pupils can gain points for their teams. Pupils (or parents/ carers) can choose from a range of challenges identified on the attachment below and when completed can fill the amount of points they have gained on the tracker certificate which is also attached below . Each Friday we would ask you to message the class teacher with number of points that your child has achieved (there is no need to detail what they have done in achieving them).

The range of challenges are designed to ensure all pupils have a few different options of things they can do but as always, please be creative with your child to help engage them as much as possible.

All of the classes in the school have been allocated to one of four teams (this is on the attachment) and I will give weekly updates on which how many points each team has. This will run up until Friday 3rd July.

Have fun trying some of these!
