Sports Day/Kid Olympics Resources…
This pack is designed to be used to organise a sports event for young children that can be scaled according to the size of setting.
N.B. Before starting, it would be useful to laminate the cards to protect them.
There are eight stations of sporty activities for the children to experience. Although these activities are not strenuous, a water-drinking station is included to get them thinking about the importance of hydration during exercise.
Each station is designed to last for ten seconds, but this can be altered if needed.
After setting up the stations with the cards and equipment assign a child or children to each station.
1. Get the children to look at the station card and ensure they understand what they must do.
2. When the children are ready, start counting as a group from 1-10. During this time, the children must continually perform the task on their cards.
3. After 10 seconds, everybody claps and then moves around to the next station (see overview sheet – p2 in this pack)
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until all stations are complete.
Enjoy!

Summer Solstice
The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year, when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky at noon. In the Northern Hemisphere, including the UK, this usually occurs on or around 21st June each year.
☀️ What Happens During the Summer Solstice?
The Earth’s tilt (about 23.5 degrees) causes one hemisphere to be tilted most directly toward the Sun.
On the Summer Solstice, the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun.
This results in:
The longest period of daylight
The shortest night
The Sun appearing at its highest point in the sky at noon
📅 Summer Solstice 2026 (UK)
Date: Sunday, 21st June 2026
Daylight hours: Around 16.5 to 17.5 hours, depending on your location within the UK. The exact solstice occurs at 9:24am BST.
🌄 How Is It Celebrated?
🔹 In the UK:
Stonehenge gatherings: Thousands visit Stonehenge to watch the sunrise align with the Heel Stone. It’s one of the most iconic solstice celebrations in the world.
Pagan and Druid traditions: Honour the Sun, nature, and the cycle of the seasons.
Festivals and community events: Sometimes linked with Midsummer celebrations (especially in Northern Europe).
🔹 Spiritually or culturally:
It symbolises life, fertility, and abundance
In ancient times, it marked a turning point in the agricultural calendar
