Virtual Sports Day at Free Methodist Mei Lam Primary School
A fruitful collaboration between local school and EdUHK students


Many sports activities have been cancelled under the COVID-19 pandemic. However, Free Methodist Mei Lam Primary School sought change during this period and co-organized a two-week Virtual Sports Day with the Department of Health and Physical Education at EdUHK from 22 February – 5 March 2021.
This virtual Sports Day aimed to instill sports knowledge in primary school students and helped students develop the habit of regular exercise. Considering the infection control measures, venue and time, 3 competition items had been arranged for this virtual Sports Day: Standing Long Jump, Standing High Jump and High Knees in 30s. The result of all items were measured and calculated with the help of mobile applications, which not only enhanced the fun but also saved a lot of time and effort for equipment and staff arrangement.

During the event, EdUHK students guided each “little athletes” from the side to make them perform better.
