Active School Flag

About the Active Flag – Presentation Primary School

What is the Active Flag?

The Active Flag is a special award that schools can earn for being really great at promoting physical activity and movement. We are working towards achieving our first Active Flag this year.

Why is it important?

  • It helps children get moving and stay healthy.
  • It makes learning more fun through games and activities.
  • It encourages everyone to be active, whether it’s at recess or during class!

How can we earn the Active Flag?

Our school has been working super hard by:

  • Learn gymnastics with School Fitness Ireland
  • Swimming in Fermoy swimming pool
  • Practice GAA skills with our coach Leon
  • Play lots of sports and games.
  • Walk and run more often.
  • Dance, stretch, and exercise every day.
  • Have fun with active breaks in between lessons.

Let’s Keep Moving!

We can keep getting better by:

  • Playing outside every day.
  • Joining in sports clubs.
  • Finding new ways to stay active, even in class!
