Active Recreation

Throughout term 2, students from 8B Green and 7B Green have participated in the Active Recreation elective program. 

Students have enjoyed trying out active opportunities and equipment within the school. When using the school's fitness room, students have used the treadmill, exercise bike, ski trainer, and rowing machine. Students have also used the school's new outdoor gym equipment, and performed movements such as step-ups, leg press, and push-ups. Students have enjoyed the benefits of walking laps for exercise and have also used the schools bikes and trikes. 

A major focus of this program is for students to explore and learn about how their body responds to movement. Students reflect on how their bodies become tired from exercise while also assisting with positive emotions such as feeling calm and relaxed after moving their bodies.
