PE Lockdown Success

Throughout lockdown the PE department remained very busy with the Hampshire School Games Daily Challenges. Our pupils were staying active by completing the daily challenges at home and the key worker groups completed them in school. We had a great deal of success with this and we won the following awards:

 1st Bassett Green - we won this competition for 16 weeks for the most pupils participation.

 1st Bassett Green - in the County for 3 of the weekly challenges.

We were awarded a certificate of recognition for the following reason.

"thank you for all your support this year and for your School’s engagement in the School Games programme. Through this you have offered a range of opportunities in PE, Sport and Physical Activity for all children in your school. In recognition of this work I am delighted to award Bassett Green Primary School the Youth Sport Trust (YST) Certificate of Recognition for ongoing commitment and achievement in the School Games programme during the Autumn and Spring Terms."

We also received a certificate from the YST for the following reason:

" In recognition of your support, commitment and engagement we would like to Award Bassett Green Primary School with the Youth Sport Trust School Games Virtual Certificate. School Games Organisers are awarding this certificate across the country and here in Hampshire we have been keeping in touch with schools to monitor their provision over the Summer Terms. In light, of this the decision to Award your school was based on the following: 1. Engagement with SGO 2. Engagement with young people within school 3. Engagement of young people at home with families 4. Regular promotion over social media."

If we find ourselves in another lockdown, we as a PE department will maintain the high standards that we have for our pupils. We will continue to take part in all of the virtual competitions and ensure that our pupils remain physically and mentally active.
