Football Free Fridays are still going strong, judging by these photos!
30th March 2014:
Football Free Fridays took on a new twist recently with the addition of a couple of new activities. The skipping challenge has been going for the past few weeks and there is a winner for each class each week. It is great to see everyone trying it out and really improving on their score as they practice.
Last Friday our new "hoppers" got their first outing in the yard, and they were a great success. Everyone from junior infants up was able to use them, and there were some great races up and down the yard. It was great fun!

Our very first Football Free Friday got off to a great start today. From now on Friday is going to be a day where there is no football in the yard, and we will take part in some great other activities instead. Today we played with brand new hula hoops, skipped on our own and in groups with skipping ropes, jumped over hurdles and through ladders, threw javelins as far as we could, and followed an activity trail in the yard. Everybody had great fun enjoying the different activities and it got us all moving, which is the most important thing. The teachers and SNAs also reported less football-related injuries in the yard, which makes their job easier! Keep an eye out on the Active noticeboard and the blog to see what is planned for next week.
