Physical Activity 2024

Physical Activity:

  • We have an active school walkway route and we use it to promote physical activity and cross-curricular learning, for example learning sight words, grammar, our tables and spellings on the way around.  
  • All classes have regular movement breaks throughout the day, for example GoNoodle, astro laps, active walkway, working standing up, Drop Everything and Dance & Busy Breaks. 
  • The children have access to lots of equipment and playground facilities during break & lunch times. The smaller children really enjoy the hula hoops and skipping ropes and enjoy making up new games with them.  
  • We have pupils from 6th Class who help out in the Junior yard as playground leaders and they are very good at helping them learn new games.  
  • We complete many challenges during the year, for example the ‘Active Break Every Day’ and 'Run around Europe Challenge.'  
  • Our School incorporates Physical Activity into annual events, for example Halloween parades & dances, St. Patrick’s Day parade and our Christmas Concert. 
  • We invested in a lovely new speaker and now we get to dance along to the music while on yard.
