Keeping Active on our way to and from school.
Walking, scooting and cycling to school.

​We love to keep active on our way to and from school. Many of the children in Merlin Woods walk, scoot and cycle to school and from school everyday. Here is a picture of our bike shed, as you can see we love keeping 'active' on our way to and from school.

Active Break Every Day.
We love getting active throughout our school day. We enjoy both indoor and outdoor physical activity during break. Active breaktimes are a great way of getting our 60 minutes of exercise each day, we really enjoy playing yard games with our friends, using our outdoor gym equipment in our yard and playing in our cool playgrounds during our breaks from schoolwork.
