Street Tag is live in Wiltshire this month
Wiltshire schools have been signing up to this campaign, that uses an interactive app to promote community-wide participation in physical activities, such as: walking, running and cycling through competitions and specific areas of interest.
Street Tag is live in Wiltshire from this month for 2 years, allowing plenty of time for schools to get involved.
The app turns the world around you into a virtual playground, points are gained by being physically active and collecting virtual tags. The app will automatically collect the points and these points add up in real-time on the school leaderboard, with prizes to be won at the end of each season.
Participants can watch their total distance accumulate and climb positions on a leaderboard. Street Tag provides an opportunity to encourage more pupils to walk to and from school, to move more throughout the school day and allows schools to compete along with staff and pupils and possibily win some fantastic prizes!
Your school can have up to 250 participants in your school team (these can include parents, children aged 5+, and the staff), your school can also have 2x of teams of 250, depending on the size of your school. Your school team collectively competes against other schools on the leaderboard, those in top positions will win cash prizes for their school to spend on physical activity provision.
Wiltshire schools can now sign up to be a part of the Street Tag Schools Leaderboard.
Your school will receive a follow-up email and a Welcome Pack for your school, with a contact person to assist you on your whole school's Street Tag experience
