1 | The Travel to Tokyo Virtual Challenge – Getting active resources for ages 5-11

What’s included? In order to best support pupils and their families in staying active together at home, we’ve created a free Home Learning Pack that is filled with ideas, including Tokyo Tens, which are fun, quick and easy ten-minute activities that encourage young people to get active at home by using simple household items as equipment.

Key Stage: KS2-4 Age: 5-11 Years: 1-9 Subjects: PSHE, PE, Citizenship,

Team GB and ParalympicsGB believe remaining active matters, now more than ever, for both physical and mental wellbeing.

While we might not be heading to the Tokyo Games this year and sports day may look a bit different, the Travel to Tokyo virtual challenge is supporting millions of 5 to 11-year-olds and their families from across the UK in getting active together as one nation.

Every physical activity, no matter how small, can be logged online as part of the Travel to Tokyo virtual challenge on the Get Set website.

By taking the time to have a walk outside or a dance around the kitchen, getting moving is a great way to reduce stress and boost your mood during lockdown.

The campaign aims to help young people make more active choices, and support families and wider school communities to keep moving and build healthier habits.

Every activity counts, no matter how small and by logging activity pupils can continue to win great prizes for themselves and their schools.

Families, as well as teachers, can now access the exclusive Team GB and ParalympicsGB educational resources, including the Home Learning Pack here: getset.co.uk/resources/travel-to-tokyo/indoor-activity.
