Our Active Slogan

We had a Slogan and Poster competition where the children in all classes were invited to write a slogan and design a poster with our slogan on it. The winning slogan was 'Don't Sit! Be Fit!'. The winning poster with this slogan is displayed in all classes as a reminder to keep active. 

Active Committee

Each year, an active committee is elected from the student population. The Active Committee are responsible for making decisions, sharing ideas and opinions and leading activities. They meet regularly to work on the our active school. 

Class reps

Each class from 1st to 6th class has a representative that sits on the Active Committee. They are responsable for leading active schools within their class and are a voice for all children in their class.
