Activity Resources - Stride Active

There is a wealth of physical activity resources available, to engage all young people, regardless of their ability and interests. We’ve pulled together a range of examples for schools and families to use. Here’s a few ideas of when you can use them:

Learning breaks – quick bursts of activity to help children focus
During the school holidays to help children achieve their 60 active minutes
Fun activities you can do together as a family
Active learning – encouraging learning in other subjects, as well as values-based learning

Blue boxes shows links to activities that support physical education and the wider curriculum. These will help develop functional skills, knowledge and understanding as well as supporting a healthy active lifestyle .

Green boxes are links to activities that are primarily about physical fitness – there are some great activities to help young people achieve the recommended 60 active minutes a day.

Dark blue activities are Schools Games activities that are great fun, demonstrate the School Games values and can be done inside or out – some can even be adapted to use things that you can find around the house!
