Principal’s Message

The Allenby staff wish all of our families a wonderful March break and hope that everyone gets outside for daily physical activity. Fitness levels of children and youth have declined significantly and meaningfully since 1981, regardless of age or sex. This decline in fitness may result in accelerated chronic disease development, an increase for health care services and loss of future productivity. To encourage more students to be active over the March break, we are inviting students to write a short submission about what they did to “get physical”. A bin will be in the office for these submissions and we will draw one each day to read during morning announcements until April 2.
