Jordan from Xcite Sport and Fitness was in school this week to see if we are the fittest Primary School in South Yorkshire. We choose Y5 children to be the sample group and represent the school in this physically demanding challenge. The session had some exiting games to get the children in the mood and get their bodies ready for the competition. The event consisted of body exercises such as burpees, speed bounce, sit ups etc. with a 100 meter sprint in between each set of exercises. This really tests the cardio vascular system and you could see the muscle burn on the children’s faces. As a group, we were our traditionally competitive selves with some outstanding individual times notably Louie and Ava’s. Well done to everyone who took part and you really gave everything for the cause.

We are thrilled to announce the results of the 2018/19 Fittest Primary School Competition.
Stocksbridge finished in 4th position out of the 42 classes who entered, with a time of 3 mins 19 secs.
Thank you once again for allowing us to visit and I hope the children really enjoyed being involved – they should be proud of their efforts.
