Did You Participate?

‘Virtual Sports Day’


From the 18th-29th May the PE department launched ‘Virtual Sports Day’ on Frog. 


The assignment was designed to provide a fun and active set of challenges that could be achieved by all students. They included a ‘tin foil ball toss’, and ‘agility challenge’ and a ‘water relay race’, all activities were adapted from sports day events that we hoped students would be able to recreate from home- to acknowledge one of the PE Department's favourite days of the year!

 

The challenges encouraged students to put on their PE kits and try their best to win prizes for success, engagement and inventive ideas for future activities! There was also a 'Winstigram Challenge' for students to provide an image of themselves taking part with a clever caption. There was something for everyone! 


Over 100 students took part across the two week period, and there were some great results.

 

The PE department are currently collating the results, and have been uploading pictures to the Virtual Sports Day Gallery- Make sure you check to see if your images made it to the website!


Whilst the assignment has officially closed, the site remains on Frog for students to revisit challenges if they want to give it another go, or maybe try it for the first time.

 

Well done to all those who took part, prize winners will be announced soon, so keep checking the PE: portal for the results!

 

Keep active and stay safe!
