Being physically active during the day makes our brains work better.

We dressed up on October 25th for our annual Halloween disco. We had lots of fun being active and doing our catwalk twirls on stage before dancing the afternoon away. Check out our spooky fashion!

December 2019: Ms O Carroll's 3rd class are doing an Active Advent Calendar. Each girl has a date with their name on it with a treat and an activity inside. The girls get to choose if it is an individual or a whole class task to do the activity. We are excited to see who will be on each day!

Active break challenge 2019.

The whole school has taken part in a month long challenge where we take an active break daily. We used a variety of breaks in our classes such as 'Just Dance', 'Go Noodle' and outdoor running/exercise breaks.  The girls and teachers all really enjoyed these breaks and will try to incorporate them as much as possible going forward.  We will try and keep our Christmas activities as active as possible too!!Check out our gallery below to see our moves.

Christmas activities 2019

We had our Christmas fun run as well as a Christmas disco on Thursday December 19th. All the girls and teachers dressed up in festive colours and had great fun. We have had a great start to the year being active and are looking forward to being even more active in 2020.

Active lines- Our teachers have been keeping us active while we line up at lunch time with a variety of active line exercises.

February 2020.

We took on a 2 week challenge doing RTE Juniors 10@10 for February. This was used to tie in with Operation transformation. Ms O Carroll attended the final Active Flag meeting to find out lots of information about Active Week and also a running challenge which we will undertake for a month in March and April.
Here are some photos of the girls engaged in the 10@ 10
