Active Schools

Here in Scoil Mhuire we have been awarded an Active School Flag. As a school with a huge grá for sport we decided we should apply for an active school flag! The Active School Flag is awarded to schools that: 
  • Adhere to DES guidelines regarding PE timetable provision for all students
  • Teach a broad and balanced PE curriculum
  • Inform and invite the whole school community to participate in the ASF process
  • Self-evaluate current provision in terms of PE, Physical Activity and Partnerships
  • Plan, implement and monitor improvements for each of the aforementioned areas
  • Organise an ‘Active School Week’ as part of the annual school calendar
  
  
 
 
 
 

We set up a committee of teachers, children, non-teaching staff members and parents. This Committee will change each year. 
Bizzy Breaks has been introduced which helps children stay active even on wet days! 
DEAD (Drop Everything and Dance) encourages active lessons! We love it and it is great fun listening and dancing to our new song during school!! 
A ‘Be Active’ club has been set up after school on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. This is hugely popular!!
 
We have even started games before school. Scoil Mhuire is now even more active than before!! 
Remember our motto - Operation Activation!
