You see us wearing those bright yellow and lime green shirts to every event, and those cool black and red ones that we got custom made. You hear the announcements finish off with “You are what you decide H.U.A,” but you don’t really know what that is.
We’re Live it Up! Live it Up promotes physical activities within the school. It’s to help those that are not sports playing athletes get up and get active. We use fun and silly games to help deliver the message that everyone must get up and get active.
This club is funded by the City of Ottawa; it’s been running strongly across many schools in the school board because many feel what Live it Up promotes is important. It’s not just physical activities that are being promoted but also Nutrition and healthy eating. You see those students sitting in the hallway on their laptops, and those that eat poutine everyday but no one really moving from their spot. Well I’m here to help. Last year, we brought you Bruin Day and those awesome smoothies, Dance Dance Revolution, and the Earth Day walk-athon at Bruce Pit. This year we’re looking for new and exciting activities that the whole school can participate in. Look forward to Bed races, the Amazing race, Vampires vs. Werewolves and more Dance Dance revolution.
New members and new ideas are always welcome and we encourage students to come to our meetings, Thursday’s at Lunch room 123.

PS I’m looking forward to hearing new ideas from new members so listen to the announcements for meeting details. I promise not to bite.
