Active Schools Update

We are ready to officially label our Active School’s Walkway which we have been using for our Daily Mile challenge in January/February. This is a route within the school grounds which is accessible to all children and usable in all weathers.  Our Active Schools Team will be meeting this week to suggest and discuss other ways in which it can be used to help promote activity for all classes during the school day.

We will also be discussing appointment of Playground Leaders to teach and lead games during break times.

Preparations are underway for our Active school’s week scheduled to take place from 4th to 8th April.  The plan so far is as follows..

Mon 4th April Ju-Jitsu with Lyle Gawley.

Irish dance with Rachel Galligan.

Tue 5th  Swimming for Middle and Senior rooms.

Local cross- curricular walk for Junior Room.

Wed 6th Modern Dance with Dylan Quinn.
Thurs 7th Games and athletics in Templeport G.A.A grounds with T.Y students from St. Mogue’s College.
Fri 8th Local walk for Middle/Senior classes

A few spaces remain in the week for any suggestions parents might have. Please let us know well in advance.

We are all are looking forward to a fun-filled few days!
