It was with great pride that the children and staff of St. Matthias raised both the Health Promotion Flag and the Active Flag on Friday 24th of June. These flags were awarded to the school as a result of all the hard work the children had undertaken during the course of the year. They participated in event like Active week, walk a mile with a smile, daily dancing and Sports Day to name but a few. The school changed its Healthy Eating policy and all children took part with great enthusiasm. We also got the opportunity to take part in the Bord Bia progamme, Food Dudes. All children made a huge effort to taste and eat the different fruit and vegetables that were supplied to the school and as a result all won the prizes that were on offer. A huge ‘Thank You’ to the Active Schools Committee for their hard work during the year and all the help they gave to Mrs Connolly. The school should be extremely proud of themselves!
