The competition was aimed at encouraging pupils to participate in physical activity.
Bryanston selected their top 25 athletes from Grade 8 to 11. The concept encouraged as many pupils as possible to complete a five-drill circuit within a 30-minute period. The scores will only be made public once all schools have completed their challenge.
The school that completes the most circuits in the allotted time stands a chance to win a prize of an outdoor gym to the value of R200 000.
“This is a great initiative from Coca-Cola,” said Dylan Wingrove, a Bryanston High School pupil. “We had such fun and the vibe was fantastic. Personally I found the shuttle drill to be the most difficult. I found it very hard to get the ball on the cone. Most people found the skipping the most difficult. At one stage there was a queue.”
Loriene Tolstrup, head the marketing department, is hoping the school wins the outdoor gym. “We have a small gym but it is not adequate and this will help keep the learners fit and active, and they can train together,” she said.
