Due to current circumstances children have had to miss out on some of the great activities held in the final term of the school year. One of these is our sports day event which many of our children look forward to each year. Unfortunately, we will not be able to run this in our usual format this year.
However, we will be running a virtual sports day next week. This sports day will include a series of 6 challenges which have been designed to enable participation for every child, whether they have been able to return to school or not. Coach Dan will be attending to complete the challenges with those children who are attending school. He will ensure there is social distancing as well as sanitised equipment for the children to use.
Please see activities details below and use the score card attached.
Taking Part:
These challenges can be completed using limited equipment and everyday equipment that may be possible to find around the house. We would like as many people as possible to participate in the events over the coming weeks and would love to get the results in with time to announce the winners before the end of the school year.
We would also like to promote the event via our twitter page and school website. This can be as simple as posting scores online, however we would like to have some photographs of the children completing the events if at all possible. Please forward any photographs that you take to the school office at office@rotherhithe.southwark.sch.uk along with your score sheet and mark it for the attention of Coach Dan in the subject line. If you send photographs to school this will be taken as consent to use on the school’s website. You have the right to change your mind about this at any time and can contact the school to request photographs are removed as per your right under GDPR.
Coach Dan is also disappointed that the teachers and parents’ races will be unable to go ahead and is sure that some of you are too. Therefore, those parents who wish to show off their skills can also complete the events and submit their scores! Please email your child’s score card listing their name on top.
We look forward to seeing the efforts of the children and hope to be returning to our usual fun filled sports day next year.
