Keeping Fit

Our pupils have continued to keep active at home this term thanks to the inspiring remote Games programme developed by the Sports Department.  

Pupils have enjoyed weekly fitness challenges every Monday, live strength and conditioning on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and ‘5 minute time out’ challenges on Fridays. 

House Challenges have also continued, including the 5k Challenge and the Inter-House Marathon. Well done to everyone involved, especially to Natasha who completed a solo marathon in four separate runs.  

The latest House Sports Challenge was to create a symbol using strava or any other running app. We had some highly original entries including a dinosaur from Jodie, a dog from Kayla and the symbol of a mitochondria muscle cell from Mathew! 

On 24 February, pupils also attended a talk delivered live on Zoom with Olympian Austin Smith, who discussed his cultural influences and Olympic journey. 

Mr Williams, Director of Sport at St Peter’s, said: "We are proud of all our pupils who have engaged with the co-curricular Games programme and the motivation they have shown to remain fit for their chosen sports, and also to our individual coaches."
