Actif Storytime sessions are about getting children aged 2-6 yrs active, increasing their basic fundamental skills (agility, balance and coordination) from a young age through story time.

It’s about bringing stories alive through fun and games.

These sessions give parents / guardians an opportunity to learn together and have fun!

Why is it important?

It gives children a chance to become confident and motivated from a young age to take part in physical activity.

It’s an opportunity for children to learn and develop basic skills that are needed to play sport and these sessions also help develop social skills, problem solving, language, literacy, numeracy and teamwork.
