Fitness Kids

The aptly named Fitness Kids app will keep your kids entertained with over 25 animated exercises that they can practice with this nifty kid’s fitness app. This fitness app for kids makes things interesting by offering two modes: Training and Joust. The former will provide tutorials while the latter will allow kids to compete against other kids who are also using the app.

FitQuest Lite

FitQuest Lite is a unique app that encourages kids to walk over 10,000 steps per day by using fun puzzles to motivate kids to take more steps: the more steps they take, the more puzzles they unlock which they then get to play. This particular kids’ activity app focuses on jogging, hopping and dancing. On Google Play and the Apple Store.

Football success for our girls

A group of Year 5 and 6 girls took part in the annual girls’ football competition held at Kingdown School. Getting stronger with every game, the girls ended up winning 5 and drawing 3 of the 8 games they played. They scored a remarkable 9 goals, letting in only 1! This resulted in us finishing second overall which is an amazing result. They will now represent West Wilts Schools in the County Finals that will be taking place at the Wiltshire FA headquarters in Devizes on the 18th January 2022.

Year 5/6 Football Tournament

A few weeks after the girl’s football team competed at Kingdown School, it was the turn of the boys. Playing in one large group, the boys had constant playing time throughout the afternoon. They had to play against some really good school teams and did brilliantly to battle in each match. Well done to all the boys for their effort and passion for playing for the school.

Sports Leaders

Pictured, are this year’s Sports Leaders. Throughout the year they will be working across the school to support children in being physically active, helping run activity sessions. They will also be working on developing the playgrounds further to provide more activity and equipment to use during the children’s playtimes.
