Trooper Tuesdays
In one of Active Schools Committee meetings the children thought of ideas to help get everyone in school active. One of their ideas was to do ‘Trooper Tuesdays’ before school which was encouraged by their active homework. While the children were waiting for school to start, they choose different exercises to carry out to get active more often. It was fantastic to see them all having so much fun in the morning.
Active Schools Slogan
The Active School Committee, created a competition for the school, to create our schools Active Schools slogan. All the children discussed why its important to be active and how we can encourage others to be active too. The children created slogans and the Active Schools Committee and the staff decided on the winning slogan. The slogan which impressed us all the most, was the slogan from a Senior Infant which was; ‘Everybody, everyday, should walk, run, jump and play.’
Here is our winner with her brilliant slogan and her brand new helmet, congratulations, we hope you enjoy cycling with your new helmet.
Active Homework
The pupils have been encouraged to get active after school by getting Super Troopers Homework every night. The pupils have been carrying out Super Troopers for many weeks now and are learning lots of fun new exercises.
