Healthy eating lesson Physical activity lesson

Here are some simple activities that you can all do at home over the holidays in order to stay active. Thank you to our Schools Sports Partnership for these.

Week 12

Activity: Mountain Climbers – How many mountain climbers can you achieve in 60 seconds?

Instructions: Starting in a plank position, to complete a mountain climber bend your knee and foot towards your chest and then back out. Alternate between legs. Count how many you can do in 60 seconds? Can you complete it each day and see if you can achieve a personal best by the end of the week? Can you achieve Bronze, Silver or Gold?

Achieve Gold– 60 Mountain Climbers

Achieve Silver – 40 Mountain Climbers

Achieve Bronze – 20 Mountain Climbers

Please see the attachment below for the Mountain Climbers activity card.

Record the children’s score and see if they can achieve a personal best by the end of the week.

Pupils scores can be submitted via the Google form on the website using the following link: http://www.threeriverswatfordssp.co.uk/personal-challenge/4594884649

The challenge has also been shared via our Twitter account @TRW_SSP. Schools/Parents can tweet us their children’s results by tagging us and using the hashtags #TRWSSPVirtualChallenge and #SGChallenge.

Further information and challenges that can be completed just for fun can be found on the SSP website.

Please be aware that if we receive pupil names for the competition scores via Twitter or the Google Form on our website, this will act as consent to reveal results across the Partnership

Kind regards

The #DailyMileAtHome resources to support physical activity

The Daily Mile Foundation team would like to send our very best wishes to the children, staff, parents and the community connected to your school. We hope you are all safe and well.

To support the health and wellbeing of children while they are at home, we have recently launched The Daily Mile at Home. The aim is to encourage children to participate safely with their parents/carers in The Daily Mile – 15 minutes jogging or running, front door to front door.

Every Monday, there will be three fun challenges for children to complete during the week. This week, they are being asked to do The Daily Mile at Home and:

check their pulse before and after The Daily Mile
wear blue to show support for the NHS
do a different route to normal

We would love to see schools getting involved with these challenges – please share them with your school community and also join in on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram with #DailyMileAtHome and show how you have all completed the challenges. We’re sure children would love to see their teachers taking part!

You can find more information and this week’s challenges below!

Updated guidance for The Daily Mile is ready to look at now, in line with current Government guidance, including social distancing and only exercising with household members.

Please share the information about The Daily Mile at Home with your school community. If you have any questions, please email team@thedailymile.co.uk
