As a school, we are talking about the physical and mental health benefits of getting some fresh air and adding some physical activity to your day. The NHS say that all young people should aim to do 60 mins of moderate to vigorous activity per day, something that gets you out of breath, gets your heart beating faster and makes your body temperature rise.

This could include walking to school, riding a bike, walking a dog, playing football at lunchtime with friends - it doesn't always need to be an organised sporting activity.

Thanks to all pupils and staff who are taking part in this initiative, a great way to start the day.
