The children came up with their own slogans and colourful posters to promote the importance ‘being active’. They came up with so many creative ideas and the overall winner was Zoe Madigan in Third Class who came up with the slogan ‘Put Down Your Switch and Get On The Pitch’.

We are so proud of all the boys and girls who show such passion in caring for the environment and our global community.

This years Active Squad is made up of children from Infants to 6th class. The children in the Active Squad have the busy job of organising fun activities and sports events for the whole school. hey are also responsible for setting up the equipment for our active yards daily as well as acting as playground leaders.
One small step for man, one giant leap for St. Margarets NS! Our Infant classes learned all about Space through Aistear and really immersed themselves into the theme!
To celebrate Climate Action Week and to further explore the Science Strand of Living Things, all classes in St. Margarets NS planted an assortment of tulip bulbs in our fantastic Greenhouse.
Our challenge for Active Week was to get everyone moving. All children in St. Margaret’s N.S. were asked to engage in a minimum of 60 minutes of physical activity each day.
