Each class took part in the run around Ireland challenge this year. Each class ran around the school yard or around our new Active Schools Walkway every day. Junior classes counted 1 lap as 1 km and senior classes counted 2 laps as 1 km. Everyone tracked their progress beside a big map on our Active Schools wall and also on checklists which were hung outside each classroom. As well as enjoying a run each day, the children learned about various new places in Ireland when they visited them.
