Guest Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Is anyone 'old enough' to remember the 'Persil Funfit' scheme? :blink: It was introduced by Persil around about 1993 with the aim of promoting fun and fitness to children (as well as brand loyalty!). In return for a number of collected points schools, pre-schools, gym clubs etc could register for the scheme and receive a resource pack and teaching materials. I have been using the assessment tool for nearly twenty years now and it works really well. So, with the importance of 'Physical development' now recognised, I want to share the assessment tool with anyone who would like to use it! Basically, the programme is divided into three areas - ABC - 'Action', 'Balance' and 'Coordination'. Each area contains 10 activities. My nursery children work toward these during their time in F1 - this might be during outdoor play or I might allocate hall time to work on specific areas. If a child achieves 3 activities in each area he or she receives a 'bronze' award certificate, 6 for a 'silver' award and 9 for a 'gold' award. The certificates are presented to the children when they leave F1. The original scheme provided badges and certificates, but I just use my own certificates now. I have attached a 'class list' for each area - I would also like to attach an individual record sheet (which I have adapted), but am concerned that this might have copyright implications - perhaps someone could advise on this? If you're interested you could email me - and of course, you could easily produce your own! Hope you find them useful!

Guest Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Thanks for those Devonmaid - I'm way too young to remember this first time round :rolleyes: but love how physical development has been thrust to the fore so will be using these to add in some additional challenges for our group - we appear to be a competitive bunch!
