2021 Virtual Spring/Summer School Games

The Summer Virtual School Games were made up of 2 fantastic opportunities- Multi-skills Triathlon and Skipping Challenge! We would like to thank the SGO's for running a successful 2021 Virtual Summer School Games!

The multi-skills triathlon was made up of three games, Shuttles Skipping, Toad in the Hole and Zig and Zag/Zig and Zag Double.

The skipping challenge was created in collaboration with Dan the skipping man!

Welcome to the West of England Spring School Games Virtual Challenge hosted by our Young Leaders from Ashton Park School!

The virtual challenge was developed in association with your School Game Organisers (SGO) and is an activity that you can do in your home or at school.  It gives you the chance to reflect on what you like, or the personal skills needed when taking part in sport and physical activity, or even how you have adapted and overcome the past 12months during the pandemic to keep you and your family active!

You will be taking part with other children across B&NES, Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset and it's a chance to show us your personal best!

Well done to everyone who took part - we loved seeing all your designs!

After hearing lots of good attributes and skills to help challenge and represent the best version of yourselves whilst taking part in sport and physical activity it was a tough decision for us to choose a winner!

Our three finalists were:
