Small School Yr 3/4 & 5/6 Cross Country Competition

15 November, 2023 from 10:00 am - 12:45 pm

FOR ALL, TARGETED, COMPETITIVE

All of our events will follow our new event themes; For All, Targeted & Competitive. These themes have been designed to ensure we provide events to benefit all young people.

FOR ALL– These events are for everyone and are delivered in school. They focus on providing 60 active mins for every child whilst supporting their physical, social and emotional wellbeing.

TARGETED– These events target specific groups of young people who would benefit the most from having positive experiences of sport, physical activity and competition. The activities and outcomes are designed to reflect the young people’s needs and motivations.

COMPETITIVE– These events are for pupils who are ready and prepared for competition and enjoy performing and competing against others. They provide the opportunity for competition in a positive and friendly environment where the focus is on enjoyment and supporting the wider development of young people as much as the outcome of the event itself.

 

This is a COMPETITIVE event for children in Years 3, 4, 5 & 6 who are ready for competition.  The aim of this event is to support individual development in sport.

 

Please note this is a SMALL SCHOOLS* competition. *The definition of a small school, is any school that has fewer than 120 students in KS2 and no more than 30 pupils in Year 6.
