Road to Rio

As we are learning about the Olympics this term Tingwall Primary school are taking part in a virtual walk from Australia to Rio De Janeiro passing through the various countries that have held the Olympic Games along the way. We are adding up the miles we all walk  during our daily mile and adding them to our walk.

Daily Mile

This morning we started the daily mile. The daily mile is when we walk a mile around the school each morning. We have to walk around the football pitch, around the multi court and around the playground five times and then we have done a mile. We will try to do it every day, depending on the weather we might not get to do it. We are allowed to walk or run.  Some people do more than a mile some people do two miles and some people just do a mile. But you have to do at least a mile. The daily mile is fun.
