Abstract
To examine school and student characteristics associated with physical activity in grade 1 to 4 students. Multi-level logistic regression examined factors associated with being moderately and highly active. A student was more likely to be moderately or highly active if he/she attended a school that provides student access to facilities and equipment outside of school hours. Male students were more likely to be moderately or highly active and overweight or obese students were less likely to be moderately or highly active. Research should evaluate if implementing a school policy that provides student access to facilities and equipment outside of school hours is effective in promoting physical activity in grade 1 to 4 students.
