About Milo HomeGround
Welcome to India’s largest P.E class!
Given the pandemic situation that the country is
grappling with, it is heartening to see how the schools
have adapted to the online module to make education
accessible to every student from the comfort of their
homes. However, with staying at home becoming a norm, it
has adversely affected the well being of children with
most of the kids spending maximum time on their
computers/smartphones.
To address this issue, Athletics Federation of
India supported by Nestle Milo India has put
together MILO HOMEGROUND, deemed to be India's
largest PE Class for children aged 5- 14. Milo
HomeGround will act as a seamless extension to the
school's curriculum with a mere 20 minute a week
(Monday - 8:00-8:20 am) focus on physical activity by
the parent and child.
This 12-week program curated and hosted by World
Champion, Padma Shri Anju Bobby George, will help
children develop their motor skills and further their
athletic abilities. An in- built points system also
incentivizes children to earn points and stand a chance
to win exciting prizes by Nestle Milo India. The program
will also maintain a School Leaderboard where
accumulated points from students from the school are
displayed in real-time. At the end of the program, the
top 3 schools will be awarded by the Athletics
Federation of India and Milo Homeground.
Over the past few months, the Athletics
Federation of India and Nestle Milo India launched a
series of exercises demonstrated by some of India's
best track and field athletes and the campaign witnessed
over 350+ hours of workout from parents and children
across the country. As a step further, this
certificate-based program will allow schools to continue
their focus on physical fitness while allowing students
to stay active.
