A spokesperson for the Whitewell Road school said: “The aim of The Daily Mile is to improve the physical, social, emotional and mental health and wellbeing of our children – regardless of age, ability or personal circumstances.
“The Daily Mile has already been rolled out in many primary schools, but this is the first time a post primary school has registered with the initiative.
