Fitness and healthy eating should start at a young age.

That’s the message pupils at two Donegal schools – St. Ernan’s National School in Ballintra and St Patrick's National School in Lifford – heard when they recently hosted the popular children’s fitness initiative ‘Fit Squad’.

Delivered by Irish fitness expert Sarah Ryan and supported by Fyffes, the visits saw over 280 pupils participate in the active workout which included advice on healthy eating, demonstrations of exercises young people should do and tips on how to use leisure time to stay physically fit.
