Challenge ONE!
St John the Baptist CofE (Controlled) Primary School and Nursery will be taking part in Team GB and ParalympicsGB’s virtual Travel to Tokyo challenge and we’re encouraging the entire school community to join in too!
We have turned the school into a Travel to Tokyo team and they will be making a 47,349 kilometre virtual journey around the world to reach Tokyo in time for the 2021 Olympic and Paralympic Games. All you need to do is get active as a family and record your activity on our easy-to use Log Activity page.
You can get started by trying some fun Travel to Tokyo activity ideas. All the physical activity your family does will count towards our team journey. You don’t need lots of equipment or space – playing in the park or having a dance off to your favourite song – if it gets your heart pumping, it all counts!
There will also be great prizes to win, like fitness trackers and Games hampers for the whole family.
You can keep track of our team’s progress and check out the weekly prize on our School Dashboard. Select their team to see their journey across the world!
Please send us photos and videos of you and your family getting active, so we can share how we’re doing! #TTTYourWay
Many thanks!
Challenge TWO!
We have signed up to the EFL Trust and Ferrero UK Joy of Moving Winter Games Festival, courtesy of Jonny and Shrewsbury Town FC. This campaign aims to raise the awareness of the Winter Games and ongoing focus on the health and well-being of school children and families.
The link below takes you to a pack which has been designed for you and your family to have fun and there are lots of different games to get everyone involved whilst you are at home! All you need to play is a small space, some willing participants and a small amount of equipment – which can even be made from every day household items!
The pack contains 30 fun activities you can try at home and as always. When you take part, Mr Hughes and the Shrewsbury Town Team would love you to share hat you’re upto using the tag #JOMWinterGames .
We’d like you to send your pictures too if you get involved, so please tag the activity to Miss Whit at whittingham.j@ruyton.shropshire.sch.uk.
