Johnny Sexton surprises schoolchildren as part of Super Troopers TV programme

Must have been some surprise!

Ireland and Leinster rugby captain Johnny Sexton and children from Skerries Educate Together National School, Co. Dublin took part in a Q&A at the school last week.

Johnny is a Laya Super Troopers ambassador and visited students to celebrate their participation in the healthy homework programme, to participate in some of the fun activities and to chat to the kids, promoting a healthier lifestyle for all the family.

New to the programme this year is Laya Super Troopers TV.

The series, which features stars such as Johnny Sexton, Anna Geary and Karl Henry alongside other well-known personalities, sportspeople and health and wellness experts, focuses on nutrition, physical activity, and mental wellbeing.

The fun ten minute episodes will be available on demand to watch at layasupertroopers.ie.

Endorsed by Healthy Ireland, the Laya Super Troopers programme has benefitted more than one million children since its launch six years ago.

As Ireland’s first health homework initiative, Laya Super Troopers encourages children and families to integrate achievable yet impactful activities into their daily lives.

Families all across the country can get involved by going to layasupertroopers.ie to access the free Laya Super Troopers TV series or to register their schools.
