active school logoPresenting St. Oliver’s N.S. Active School LogoThis school year in St. Oliver’s N.S. we are taking part in the Active School Flag initiative, and working towards our first active flag.

This is a whole school initiative, and we are so excited. As an active school, we promote a school where physical activity is valued, promoted, and enjoyed by all. The initiative is to move well and move often.

The active school flag strives to achieve ‘More schools. More active. More often.’

At its best, the active school flag promotes physical activity in a fun, positive and inclusive way.

Active schools are encouraged to strengthen their PE programme and are supported to identify strategies to energise the school day and to reduce sedentary time!!!

This project will be divided into 4 sections - Physical Activity, Physical Education, Partnership and Active School Week. Click on the read more button in the sections below and have a look at what we have been up to!
