ACTIVE HOME WEEK 2020
As you may know, Active School Week takes place every year in Scoil Mhuire Fatima Timahoe and is a really enjoyable part of the school year for many children. The national Active School Week takes place this week, the 27th of April. Unfortunately, we are not in school but we have decided to take part in Active HOME Week.
The idea of the #ActiveHomeWeek challenge is to:
· Reach out to parents/guardians to support the work that is taking place in their school.
· Support parents by providing them with ideas and a challenge format to encourage children to build physical activity into their day.
· Encourage children to find NEW ways of being physically active that they ENJOY.
· Raise awareness about the fact that children need at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day.
To complete the challenge children have to find FOUR different ways of being active every day making sure that this add up to 60 MINUTES, or more. Children are encouraged to try something NEW, have FUN with a family activity and to ENJOY the week!
We would love to see your home videos and pictures of you and your families taking part in Active Home Week. Send any pictures or videos to your class teacher via Aladdin.
Please fill our your challenge chart of the four activities which you took part in each day and send this back to your class teacher also.

Ideas:
There are so many great physical activity suggestions in circulation at the moment from local/national sports clubs, role models and agencies that we decided to organise them into an IDEAS word cloud graphic. The word cloud is designed to make it easy for parents and children to find ways to complete the challenge, but children don’t have to stick with just these ideas. They can use activities, not listed here, that they are already doing or create new activities of their own.
Some simple ideas can be;
Jumping on the trampoline, kicking a ball against a wall, walk with my family, game of chase, scavenger hunt, obstacle course around the garden, hula hooping, skipping, basketball, Hurling/Camogie and some traditional sports day activities such as egg and spoon race, three legged race, sack race, piggy back races.
