CATCH Family Fitness Night at Thomas Paine Elementary

On Friday, January 31, Thomas Paine Elementary will host a CATCH Family Fitness night. The event will be from 6:30pm to 7:30pm at Thomas Paine and will consist of various health/wellness activities.

The CATCH Family Fitness night will be promoting healthy living for our students and their families by offering a FREE night of indoor fitness including Zumba, Yoga, Weight Lifting, and healthy snacks! We have some special guest planning to attend from Champaign County YMCA, and Kinex Fitness Studios as well.

CATCH (Coordinated Approach to Child Health) is the name of the grant Thomas Paine received from the Champaign Urbana Public Health Department for the 2013-14 school year for health-related activities. Along with CUPHD staff members and a few designated Thomas Paine staff, they have formed a committee to promote health/wellness awareness. In addition, all Thomas Paine teachers have been encouraged to talk about health and wellness with their students on a regular basis!
