Active Break Challenge

1st Feb 2026

The Amber Flag Committee/Student Council are excited to be assisting in organising our Active Break Challenge. Our whole school community hears a bell 🔔 at 12 noon and we all pause for a movement break. This year we are doing the Croke Park challenge 💪🏼. The students report that: 
 
💬 It’s so fun!
💬 I love when the bell goes at 12.
💬 The movement breaks keep us active and moving. We have fun with our friends and get a break from our work.
💬 I am learning a lot of facts about Croke Park. Sometimes the movement breaks give us instructions in Irish too, so it’s helping us with moving more and our language. 
💬 When it’s over, I can focus more on the lesson and concentrate. I’m glad we are doing the challenge.
