  • Its aim is to encourage young children to get active and enjoy physical exercise whilst raising funds to keep vulnerable hearts beating.
  • This scheme is suitable for Nurseries, Infant Schools, Beaver Scouts, Rainbow Guides as well as any other groups that work with young children.
  • Over a course of days or weeks you will teach the children new games and activities from the wide selection given in our free Artie’s Olympics Organisers’ Guide. Then you can select five activities and use them to make up your very own Artie’s Olympics programme.
  • This will culminate in an Artie's Olympics Day when all the children will carry out the new activities they have learned and parents, carers or guardians can come along to watch.
  • All activities are easily adaptable to suit the age and abilities of the children involved.
