Active School Week

 

This year in St.Oliver’s we committed to having an ACTIVE SCHOOL WEEK as part of our annual school calendar.

It did not disappoint!  We had the best week ever!  Active School Week ran from May 2nd to May 5th.  

 

                                                    tug of war

 

 

There wasn’t a uniform in sight!  It was tracksuits for the week for children and staff!  Active homework replaced written homework.  Each day began with ‘wake up, shake up’ on the yard – music and groovy dancing for all!  We had members of the active flag student committee on the intercom at 10 every morning to give us a run down on the day’s activities and also to lead us in some exercises.  Teachers were emailed challenge videos that were set by staff and some famous faces.  Our active walkway was in hot demand.  From rowing to tug-of-wars, basketball challenges to noodle gold cups, sack races to dodgeball tournaments – we really did have our very own Olympics!  The photos and videos really do paint a thousand words!

 

Let’s get ACTIVE!
