PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Soccer

Orienteering

The whole school went on a walk to a local Deer farm. They followed a map of the area and negotiated obstacles along the way. The children have great respect for their local natural environment. It was a real outdoor adventure.

Swimming in Coral Leisure

Every year the children from 1st to 6th class take part in a 6-week swimming programme in Coral Leisure, Monaghan town. All children have the opportunity progress though the grades/ PAWS programme.

Picture

Tennis

All children took part in a five-week tennis programme with Kevin Curran. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and their skills greatly improved.

Picture

Land Paws

As well as taking part in swimming lessons the children learn all about water safety before they go to the swimming pool. Through the Land PAWS programme from the Irish Water Safety Association the children learn about water safety in the pool, in the home, on a boat, on the beach, on the farm and on the waterways.  The children also learn about what to do if they saw somebody getting into difficulty in water

PE Homework
All children in our school have exercises to complete every evening with their families. We have adopted the Laya Healthcare Super Troopers programme to help facilitate this. Every child has a Super Troopers home school journal to complete and share both at home and at school.
