Active Bands

Only 19% of Australian children aged 5 to 17 are meeting the recommended Australian guidelines of 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each day. Getting your children more physically active is a big challenge for parents. To help, we’ve created Active Bands ® Active Bands is an exciting and fun new way to encourage and support Australian children to be more physically active. Using a combination of smart and engaging digital technology, Active Bands allows parents, teachers and coaches to easily and flexibly create, record and track physical activity. Parents can select from a library of simple, at home activities or create their own from within the dedicated Active Bands app. Coaches and teachers can set up their lessons and programs in the system and then track attendance. Active Bands encourages children to become more physically active through scanning their very own Active Band, tracking their progress and earning exciting digital rewards. Active Bands are also waterproof, and they don’t have batteries, so they don’t need to be recharged! Best of all - it’s free to use! All you need to get started is a Active Band and the Active Bands mobile app, which can be downloaded from Google Play.
