Calling all Corby primary and secondary schools - Street Tag is coming
Schools, teachers and families in Corby are invited to join a new community initiative that turns everyday movement into a fun, rewarding challenge, and it’s free to play.
Street Tag is a family-friendly mobile app that rewards you and your team for being active every day. Participants earn points by walking, cycling, running or rolling to and from places, collecting virtual tags scattered throughout the local area.
Tags can be found along school routes, in parks, at community events and near local shops, encouraging people of all ages to explore more of Corby while keeping active. Each tag collected adds to your team’s total, with points tracked on a live leaderboard where primary and secondary schools can compete for prizes.
Up to 250 participants can represent a school team, and anyone connected to the school can take part — including parents, carers, grandparents, teachers and other school staff. This makes Street Tag a unique opportunity for families to work together to stay active, support their local school and enjoy some friendly competition.
Street Tag turns Corby into a giant virtual playground, promoting movement and exploration across the town’s parks, footpaths and public spaces. Whether you’re on your way to school, walking the dog or heading to the shops, every journey is a chance to collect points and climb the leaderboard.
Natalie Lawrence, Strategic Director – Children & Young People at Northamptonshire Sport, said: “We’re delighted to see Street Tag launching in Corby. This initiative provides an exciting and inclusive way for children, families and schools to be active together. By making movement part of everyday life, Street Tag supports healthier, happier communities across Northamptonshire.”
Seun Oshinaike, founder of Street Tag, said: “It’s great to be working with schools in Corby, helping families and communities get physically active in a fun, sustainable and accessible way. Street Tag is both a fun and highly competitive game offering the opportunity for people to engage and win prizes for their chosen school using their smartphones.”
Street Tag Corby will run across two seasons in 2026:
Season 1: 26 January to 23 March
Season 2: 15 June to 17 August
Schools taking part have the chance to win fantastic sports equipment and vouchers to support their future activities.
