Seven Galway schools recently hosted visits from Irish fitness expert Tom Dalton where over 800 pupils heard the message that physical fitness and healthy eating go hand-in-hand and should begin at an early age.
The participating schools were Briarhill N.S; Scoil Chaitríona Junior, Renmore; Scoíl Bhríde Shantalla; Gaelscoil Dara; Holy Trinity National School, Mervue; Scoil Mhuire, Moycullen and Belclare NS, Tuam.
Topics covered during each visit included demonstrations of exercises young people should do, advice on healthy eating, and tips on how to use leisure time to stay physical fit.
