The gym

Hobbies and pastimes

We are learning about hobbies and pastimes in room 4.

We have set up a gym in our role play corner to promote exercise and an active lifestyle.

Yesterday we went on a visit to our local leisure centre where we met Dean one of the gym instructors. 

The children learned how to stretch their muscles, they played balancing games, practiced throwing and catching as well as jumping, skipping and hopping.

We also got to take a tour of the gym and saw machines such as treadmills, bikes and cross trainers.

This was a fantastic trip for the children and we are very grateful to Clondalkin leisure centre for letting us visit.
