Plympton Family KS2 Multi Skills 2024

Friday 15^th March 2024 – Today our team of sports leaders from Plympton Academy hosted a Multi Skills event for KS2 children from some of our PSSP schools. 5 schools came along to take part in various events, all designed to be energy-packed and fun. Plympton St. Maurice, Old Priory, Chaddlewood, Yealmpstone Farm and Boringdon were represented and we had a sports hall full of very excited children. Schools were competing against each other but the main focus was on having lots of fun and trying lots of new challenges. The activities range from tests of skill and accuracy with the Bean Bag Throw; team events such as a Sprint Relay and Ladder Relay; speed and agility with the Speed Bounce and even a test of strength with the Chest Push challenge. There were so many smiling faces in the hall this morning, it was fantastic to see so many children enjoying being physically active and challenged. I would like to say a huge thank you to the sports leaders who helped today – you really stepped up and made sure that all of the activities ran smoothly – thank you. Every child that took part today received a certificate and the overall winning team received a special certificate. At the end of the morning, the scores were collated and I have never seen it so close! Less than 1 point between 1^st and 2^nd place! Full table of results below. Congratulations to Yealmpstone Farm who were our overall winning team today and to Chaddlewood who were super close in the runners up position. A huge well done to everyone who took part, we could see how determined you were to do well for your team – I hope you had fun! I am already looking forward to our next event – check out the PSSP website to see what exciting event is coming up next.
