Lucan East Educate Together National School hosts ‘Fit Squad’

Lucan East Educate Together National School

Fitness and healthy eating should start at a young age. That’s the message pupils at Lucan East Educate Together National School heard when they recently hosted the popular children’s fitness initiative ‘Fit Squad’. Supported by Fyffes and delivered by Irish fitness expert Sharon Flanagan the visit saw over 110 pupils participate in an active age-appropriate workout designed to improve their general fitness during which advice on the importance of healthy eating was given.

Running until next March, the current series will see some 10,000 pupils participate from schools throughout Ireland, north and south, increasing to almost 40,000 the number that will have taken part in the programme since it was introduced in 2018. Schools interested in receiving a similar visit can find details at www.fyffesfitsquad.ie
