Activ8 your Family

Did you know that it is recommended that children and young people do a minimum of 60 minutes of physical activity each day? This can include walking to school, playground games, PE and sport or physical activity with friends and family at home.

Taking part in sport and physical activity builds self-esteem; builds self-confidence and plays a crucial role in promoting a healthier lifestyle. It also provides an opportunity for children to meet new people and build friendships and most importantly, sport can be lots of fun for children and the whole family.
