Running Around the World!
We have been Running Around the World in Scoil Íde. This involves walking/running laps of our school playground daily. Our teachers record how many laps we do so that we can add them all together to see how many we have done in total at the end of every week. Seven laps equals one kilometer! Our Active Schools committee gathers all of the Laps Record Sheets from the teachers on a Friday to see how far we have travelled as a whole school.
The map above has pins to show our destinations so far;
London, England
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Berlin, Germany
Krakow, Poland
Vilnius, Lithuania
Riga, Latvia
Minsk, Belarus
Kiev, Ukraine
Bucharest, Romania
Istanbul, Turkey
Ankara, Turkey
Aleppo, Syria
Jerusalem
We are amazed to think that we have been walking/running distances that equate to passing through each of the above cities.We have become fit and geographically knowledgeable with this Active Schools initiative.
Every week, there is a Champion Class. This is the class that has walked or run the most laps around the school playground. Have a look below to see our winners so far!
