We often hear the term, “back to basics” in education. Here is what it should mean:
- play
- sport
- recess
- daily quality physical education
- time to build friendships
- socially connected students prepared to learn
- outdoors!
Happy back to school! @EverActiveAB

Find your sport. Experience the feeling.
Whether you play in a sold-out stadium or in a local community centre, sports have immense physical, mental, and emotional benefits that we all have the right to enjoy.
Today, get moving for #NationalHealthAndFitnessDay!
