Thursday May 27th,
The children and staff of Naul National School did the Walk around Ireland challenge. This is about 3170 kilometers. We walked around the back of the school 3170 times cumulatively (the back is close to half of a kilometer).
We launched our Active School Walkway on the day of the Sponsored walk/ Walk around Ireland challenge.
Walkway signs run around the perimeter of the green area at the back of the school.
Junior and Senior Infants walked from the Giant’s Causeway to Newgrange.
The 1st and 2nd classes walked from New Grange to Hook Head in Wexford.
3rd/4th walked from Hook Head to Carrauntoohil.
5th and 6th classes walked from Carrauntoohil to Slieve League Cliffs in Donegal.
Finally the staff walked from Slieve League Cliffs to the Giant’s Causeway.
The children received sponsorship forms. We used this great fun day as an opportunity to fundraise for a school hall which is much needed to enhance the children’s learning experiences in P.E for years to come.
