St. Edward's National School Sligo

Active School Week '10

We had our Active School Week from 26th April to 30th April '10. Everyone loves this week as we get to try out lots of different sports and fun activities. During PE we always remember our two slogans:

• In PE everyone takes part.
• In PE we love playing and having fun.

The teachers organised lots of fun activities for us. These included :

• Taking part in a Safer Cycling Course.
• Skipping games on yard.
• Gaelic Blitz in Calry.
• Outdoor adventure trails.
• Irish dancing.
• Parachute activities.
• Maths Treasure trail.
• Swimming in the Clarion Hotel.
• Badminton.
• Rugby training with Sligo Rugby Coach.
• Writing Good Luck messages to the Connacht Rugby team.

There were lots of great activities during the day and some children also walked to school as part of our walking bus.
Active School Week is about keeping fit and healthy. It was great fun and
Remember a Healthy Heart leads to a Healthy Mind!
