For Christmas Week , Mayo Abbey N.S. changed our Daily Mile to a "Reindeer Run" to help us get in the Christmas spirit whilst still keeping active. All the children looked great in their Christmas Jumpers and Santa hat and a lot of fun was had.

Active Break Challenge 2018
Mayo Abbey N.S. took part in the Active Break Challenge for four weeks from November 19th to December 15th. Here in Mayo Abbey, we recognise the importance of exercise and how little exercise breaks can help boost our concentration and help our learning. This was a brilliant challenge that all of our classrooms really enjoyed. Each break took 2-3 minutes and could be a Running. Dancing or Exercise Break. Well done to all involved!
