Physical Activity

The good news is that between 2008 and 2018, the proportion of ACT children aged 5- 17 years who usually walked or cycled to school increased from 28% to 40%. However, only one in five (22%) are meeting the physical activity guideline for children of 60 minutes or more of physical activity per day (CHOR 2020). This poses a very real and serious threat to their long-term health and quality of life.
