What is the Active Flag?

The Active School Flag is a Department of Education and Skills Initiative which recognises schools
that strive to achieve a physically active school community by rewarding them the Active School
Flag.
To achieve a flag we will be working towards improving the physical fitness of all our students by
providing lots of fun sports activities in school as well as promoting a more active lifestyle at home.

We are working towards renewing our Active School Flag this year. We are confident that this will be
an enjoyable and beneficial experience for the whole school community.

Our Active School Commitee

​Pupils from 4th, 5th and 6th had the opportunity to apply for a position on the Active School
Committee. 12 members were selected and have worked so well together. They show great
enthusiasm and initiative at all times.

Our Active School Slogan

All classes from Junior Infants to 6th Class suggested 3 active slogans for our school. Our Active
School Committee found it very difficult to choose a winner.
Ms. Sheridan’s 5th class came up with the winning slogan.
