There are now more opportunities to lace up the boots, hit the dance studio or slide down to a skatepark, as part of a refreshed campaign promoting physical activity.
\nMinister for Education James Merlino announced the launch of the Get Your Move On campaign with AFLW star and captain Emma Kearney as well as the latest Active Schools grant recipients.
\n\u201cWe want all young Victorians to find something they enjoy doing to get active \u2013 just for 15 minutes, four times a day \u2013 which is what this initiative is all about,\u201d Minister Merlino said.
\n\u201cJust a small amount of extra physical activity is all it takes to boost the social, physical and mental health of young people \u2013 in turn boosting educational outcomes.\u201d
\nGet Your Move On encourages kids to engage in 15 minutes of physical activity four times a day, through activities they enjoy \u2013 like walking their dog, riding to school, or kicking a football with friends.
\nIt is part of the broader $24.2 million Active Schools initiative ensuring all Victorians aged 5 to 18 years old have the skills, confidence and motivation to live a happy and healthy life by boosting their physical movement each day
\noutside of school.
\nActive Schools supports schools to take a holistic approach to physical activity, recognising there is no single solution to shifting inactivity, and encourages kids to be active through quality physical education, quality school sport, active classrooms, active travel, active recreation and a supportive school environment.
\nNinety-six Victorian schools have received $30,000 through the latest round of Active Schools Grants, for the purchase of sports equipment, to upskill physical education teachers and to engage local organisations and clubs to deliver sporting programs.
\nThe grants can also be used to make classrooms more active, encourage greater active travel to and from school through bicycle education programs, upgrade playgrounds to support greater physical activity, and provide opportunities for more recreation activities such as dance, Pilates or skateboarding.<\/p>\n
