The drive to keep students active during lockdown continues with the launch of Thomas Clarkson Academy's Active Minutes this week.
The PE department is encouraging students to stay active through their PE lessons but also outside of their lessons too.
They can enter details of their activity via this link and anyone, including staff, who logs a total of 10 hours or more, by the end of February will be entered in to a prize draw to win a smart watch (Fitbit Versa 2 worth £159).
There are no submission limits and students must log their sessions separately to count.
The benefits of leading an active lifestyle include:
Physical
- Increases bone density and strength
- Increases cardiovascular health
- Improve muscle tone and strength
- Increases energy levels
Mental
- Improves your mood
- Reduces feelings of anxiety
- Helps you sleep better
- Protects memory and thinking skills
