Bizzy Breaks is a collection of activities for primary school pupils designed to support children to move throughout the day.

Whether you need an energiser to wake the class up or a gentle transition to focus the mind we have an activity for you. We have taken all your favourite pieces from the original Bizzy Breaks and expanded the programme to introduce mindfulness into the classroom as well as a suite of cross-curricular resources, games and lesson plans e.g.: SPHE, mathematics, primary language curriculum, history and geography.

Bizzy Breaks is ideal for movement breaks throughout the school day and helps pupils achieve the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity a day.

Bizzy Breaks is co-designed with teachers and has the flexibility to be used in a way that works best for your class.
