Kids need physical activity to make it throughout the day. Has there been any decisions on how kids will get out their energy while staying safe and distanced, especially as we move into the colder months?

According to the OCDSB, while playground equipment will remain closed pending further direction from Ottawa Public Health, and students will be discouraged from engaging in games or activities that require close proximity or promote multiple touch points, physical activity will be facilitated by two scheduled recesses. Also, increased outdoor learning for students will be encouraged, and outdoor physical education will continue.
