Active Breaks

The children in Milltown NS take part in the Active Break Challenge on a regular basis in our school. We ran a four week official ‘Active Break Challenge’ in our school from Monday 23rd November to Friday 18th December. In May all the children enjoyed taking part in obstacle courses.

As part of Seactain na Gaeilge we have been learning some Irish dancing. We went outside on a number of occasions during this fortnight and we learned Ballaí Luimnigh and Ionsaí na hInse. We concluded with a Ceilí Mór on 16th March.

The Daily Mile

The children have been working on increasing their time and speed while taking part in ‘The Daily Mile’ each day for six weeks. This finished with a run on the running track at the football pitch.
