Let's keep active!
Welcome to our new online activity centre!
Hertford and Ware School Sports Partnership want to help you to be active whilst the coronavirus outbreak is keeping us all at home. We hope that adding any of these activities into your new daily routine will also add some extra fun!
Hello! Here we are with our second week of activities. Remember to have a go, repeat the challenges, and challenge the challengers (your family). You will get better and stronger but most of all have fun. You might like to make up your own challenges.

This week’s challenge requires some of last week’s equipment but with an addition. GOOD LUCK!

Further challenges:
TOO EASY?

outdoor activity
Noughts and Crosses Frisbee
Construct a 3 x 3 board on the ground using masking tape or chalk, with the squares big enough for a frisbee. Then take turns with your partner throwing the frisbee, attempting to land it (mostly) in a square. If successful, mark your X or O in that square. Continue until you have a winner.
Equipment You'll Need
A Frisbee, a ball or anything really that you can throw!
Chalk, masking tape or anything to make a 3 x 3 grid
You can make it harder by making the squares smaller or standing further away.
You can make it easier by making the squares larger and standing closer.
