  • Get Set for Tokyo!

    Fri 21 May 2021

    Travel to Tokyo


    To celebrate the rescheduled Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, we're inviting  families to get active with our virtual Travel to Tokyo challenge, Team GB and ParalympicsGB’s free programme for children aged 5 to 11 and their families.


    Travelling in school teams, children will gain kilometres by logging their physical activity on the Travel to Tokyo website. Travel to Tokyo is all about getting active at home as well as in school, so teams will travel quicker by logging activity with their family. By taking part, pupils will grow in confidence and learn vital skills, such as teamwork and resilience, as well as having the chance to win exciting prizes along the way.


    Teams will take the tourist route, travelling 47,349 kilometres and stopping off en route at cities which have hosted, or will soon host, an Olympic and Paralympic Games.
    Travel to Tokyo is all about team spirit, so all participants belong to a school team. These have been automatically created for every primary school in the UK so you can immediately start logging activity against your team. You can get active alone or with family, at home or outdoors. Dancing in the kitchen, video workouts in the lounge, walking in the park or playing tag - it all counts towards your journey to Tokyo!


    Families can find fun, free activities to help them get active at home

    Would be great to see you all taking part!
