Healthy Kidz

18th Sep 2016

We are delighted to inform you about a new kids' fitness programme called 'healthy kidz'. This is a programme that aims to give physical literacy the same level of importance as academic literacy on the curriculum. It is evidence based, outcome-focused and engaging. In Northern Ireland, our young people's interest and engagement in physical activity is the lowest in the UK and the worst in history. The main ambition of the 'Healthy Kidz' coaches and professionals is to pilot a comprehensive, effective, sustainable and fun programme that will take Northern Ireland's young people from the bottom of the national physical activity league table to the top. We are one of only 30 schools in Northern Ireland to get this great opportunity.

Every Monday for the next 8 weeks starting Monday 19th September and running to the 7th November 2016. 'Healthy Kidz' will be coming to Aughamullan Primary School and implementing their programme to every class, each session lasting approximately 40minutes.
