Physical Activity
We have a designated Active School Flag Walkway around our school. The Active School Flag Student Committee helped to plan and map out the Walkway route around our school. We like to use our Walkway throughout the school week. We integrate our Walkway with other curricular areas.
Keeping Active to and from school
The children in Scoil Mhuire Murroe love to walk or cycle to school. The children also use their scooters to travel to school.
Active Break Everyday
We enjoy our Active Breaks everyday. The classes in Scoil Mhuire Murroe have been doing lots of different activity breaks during the year. These activity Breaks are both indoors and outdoors. The Active Breaks are a great way of getting our 60 minutes of exercise. We really enjoy learning yard games and exercise with our Playground leaders, the Active Break a day timetabled activities, pur P.E. homework and much more.
