Northcote 'Sports Month' Fitness Challenge

During this time of the year, we should have been competing in our 'Sports

Day'. Rather than cancelling, we have decided to change our plans this year.

Instead of a 'Sports Day' we are organising a 'Sports Month'.

Task: Daily Challenge: For the next 4 weeks, we will be setting daily fitness

challenges for you and your family to complete - this will help us achieve the

recommended 30 minutes of exercise each day!

Each day you need to check the school's Twitter account to see what the daily

fitness challenge is.

https://twitter.com/northcotesch?lang=en

We want to see as many photos of you and your family completing all the fitness

challenges as well as images of fitness record cards (remember when posting a

photo on Twitter do not include your name).

If you are able to complete all of the week's challenges you will receive a

certificate.

To be able to receive the certificate, you need to email an image of the

fitness record card completed weekly to your class teacher.

Good luck and let's get fit!
