Well done to the children who enjoy lots of activities and sports with our local clubs!
Partnerships Our Active School Committee comprises two pupils from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. They are involved in planning and implementing school initiatives which promote activity and enjoyment for all children. They carried out a survey to find out the clubs the children in the whole school belonged to. The results of the survey were outlined at school assembly and were taken into consideration when we were planning our Active School Week. We promote the local clubs and we celebrate the successes of the pupils at assemblies and on the Wall of Fame. We have a very supportive Parents’ Association who are always available to help with activities and fundraising.

Physical Education
Physical Education provides children with learning opportunities through the medium of movement and contributes to their overall development by helping them to lead full, active and healthy lives. In Scoil Mhuire Murroe we aim to focus on this area for development
- To provide active learning experiences to the children
- To benefit teaching and learning in our school
- To conform to principles outlined in the primary curriculum All pupils are provided with 60 minutes timetabled PE per week. We plan our PE lessons in line with the strands/strand units/content objectives for our class level: The strands across the P.E. Curriculum for all classes are: Athletics Dance Gymnastics Games Outdoor and Adventure activities Aquatics
All children have access to the six strands each year – Children from third to sixth have four swimming lessons in the first term each year in The Arena, University of Limerick. The instructors follow the PAWS programme and the children are awarded certificates on completion of their lessons. All classes have lessons on the Understanding and Appreciation of Aquatics- resources on the Irish Water Safety website are used to implement these lessons.
The children from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th were awarded PAWS swimming certificates on completion of their swimming lessons in UL Arena.
