Active School Week - 23rd - 27th April 2018
The Department of Education and Skills and Healthy Ireland encourage all schools to organise an Active School Week (ASW) as part of their school calendar.
The ASW initiative is about providing FUN and INCLUSIVE physical activity opportunities for ALL members of the school community. It allows schools to reinforce the message that not only is physical activity good for you but it also very enjoyable. It provides schools with an excellent opportunity to raise awareness about the physical activity opportunities that are available in their locality and to work collaboratively with students, parents and members of the community.
Schools are free to organise an Active School Week at any point in the school year if the above dates are unsuitable.
