Stay Actice During School Closures - March 2020 - June 2020

  • Stay Fit! - Motivational Videos and Tips on Staying Active 

    March 2020 - June 2020 

    Schools were closed... online learning established for the first time... restrictions on meeting people and going out... 

    Among other (and bigger) worries, one obvious worry was not getting enough exercise - especially for our teenagers.   

    Our PE teachers joined forces to create exercise tasks that students could do at home. They provided educational videos to keep students motivated. 

    Here is one example: Why not create your own obstacle course wherever you are?

    We also sent the videos to our partners to share with their students! 

     

    Stay Fit! - Challenges 

    March 2020 - June 2020 

    Students were motivated to do challenges and upload and compare their results. Different devices were used to record results. For example: chest straps to monitor the pulse or tracking apps. On a online platform the results were uploaded and visible to other students. 

    Here are some examples of the challenges:
