An Active School is a school where physical activity is valued, promoted and enjoyed by all.
Our school is working towards achieving our Active School Flag. We have been taking part in many activities over the last number of years to help with this. Teachers have attended training, children have completed questionnaires and taken part in focus groups, parents are being surveyed for their views and staff have taken part in evaluation exercises, including updating our school’s Physical Education Plan.
Our school celebrates Active Schools Week every year. Please see our school’s Facebook page for up to date pictures of the many activities and events we take part in.
