Pupils from Reception through to Year 6 were put through their paces on Friday 15 November when they participated in a Pudsey Fitness Challenge to raise money for the annual event.
“All children across the school, competed a fitness circuit during the day, and saw if they could improve their times,” explained Year 4 Class Teacher Bethan Williams, who organised the event along with our PE Lead Aaron Myhill.
Around 420 children completed fitness circuits that included skipping and burpees, as well as exercises using the school’s gym equipment.
“The children had up to one minute on each station to do as many reps as possible, added Miss Williams. “Last year we raised a record-breaking £2,400. We hope to have matched or exceeded that this year.”
Staff and children at Gaywood, which is part of the West Norfolk Academies Trust, also sported non-uniform for the day.
