Physical Activity

Active Zone

Each class gets a chance to enjoy the Active Zone every week. Our Playground Leaders bring out and return the equipment at the beginning and end of the day.

Here are some classes enjoying our Active School Walkway for our Santa Dash in December.

We also used the Active School walkway for our St. Patrick’s Day parade in March.

Active Breaks

Every class completed the Active Break Every Day challenge in January-February this year.

Room 10 showed us their Bizzy Breaks.

‘Run a Day’ challenge

Every class completed the ‘Run a Day’ challenge, as a whole school initiative, over a period of 4 weeks this year. We ran to The Giant’s Causeway and back, a total of 520km in March-April.

We are celebrating after running to the ‘Giant’s Causeway’ and back

Reducing Sedentary Time

Every class has agreed upon a set of 3 or more actions to decrease sedentary time. Some classes dance, stretch, jump or learn Maths or Irish in an active way.
