National School Sport Week at Home
The annual National School Sport Week celebrates the important role of Physical Education and school sport in enhancing young people’s wellbeing.
This year, the Youth Sport Trust has teamed up with Sky Sports to run a national campaign which will aim to unite the country – families, schools, sport and businesses – in a celebration of the power of sport to bring people together, even during isolation.
The UK-wide campaign will challenge people to take on their families, friends and neighbours in virtual sporting challenges – helping them to connect in an unprecedented period of school closures and social distancing.
It will be supercharged by Sky Sports who will be helping to inspire families across the country to take part. Read the launch announcement.
The campaign builds on the Youth Sport Trust’s #StayHomeStayActive campaign which has been supporting schools, parents and young people with daily free resources to get young people moving and enjoying the PE curriculum while at home.
Active Essex have also worked closely with the School Games Organisers team to bring you a weeks worth of challenges you can do at home or safely within your school environment:
