Active Walkway
Our classes have been working on Learning on the Move challenges using our Active Walkway. Here are some of our classes completing our current route, Signs of Autumn.
Active Week
We had a fantastic first Active Week this May! We had a great time doing daily activities such as a beanbag golf course, a dress-up obstacle course, water races, Sports Day and parachute activities. Our 5th and 6th classes also had their school tour to the National Aquatic Centre where they did swimming, games, and athletics. Here are some photos of our week:

Run Around Ireland Challenge
Our school participated in and completed the Run Around Ireland challenge this January. Here are some photos of us out running and walking!
Active Breaks Challenge
The children in our school took part in the ‘Active Break Everyday’ challenge this November. Indoor and outdoor movement breaks are a brilliant way to help us to focus, improve concentration and are lots of fun! Here are some photos of our movement breaks.
