Health Speak Day in Fermanagh

On Friday 15th April DENI Ulster GAA coaches Owen Mooney and Teresa McGirr ran a “Health Speak” Fun Day in St Ninnidh’s Derrylin for the whole school.

Each class in the school received a Health lesson that incorporated interactive tasks and games for the children. The focus of the sessions were to give the children a fun and informative insight into all the different ways they can stay healthy. There was individual, group work, interactive quizzes, Health Dancing as well as pupil led sessions. Ulster GAA Health & Wellbeing Manager, Aileen Tohill was also in attendance to provide Key Stage 2 children with more detailed information as to the importance of eating a balanced and healthy diet.

The day was very successful as it linked in very well to the work being done by the teachers in relation to the importance of being active and having a healthy lifestyle.

Cornagague Primary School also recently held a Health Speak Day for its pupils. Key Stage 1 Schools Coach Owen Mooney organised health games and team activities that were related to the work being done through the curriculum by Mrs Boyle, Mrs Corrigan and Miss Richardson.

The pupils and staff had a glorious day thanks to the weather and the organisation and team work of Owen and the School’s Staff.
