P.E.
Physical activity and understanding of a healthy life style is promoted through the PE curriculum. The pupils will be experiencing team-based skills and developing their own physical health through fitness sessions. Sportsmanship and cooperation gives them the skills to make positive relationships in all settings. Pupils will experience many different activities that will be designed to keep them active.
Swimming
Each class will experience 2 terms of swimming every year. Swimming lessons encourage the pupils’ confidence and enjoyment of swimming and water-based activities. General fitness and stamina develop as pupils improve their ability to swim for longer distances. Lessons include important safety awareness and dangers of being in or near the water.
Pupils are grouped according to ability and can progress through beginner, intermediate and confident swimmers. The ability to swim widths and lengths of the pool are goals to achieve. Pupils’ performances are recorded and certificates can be earned for the different distances that the pupil can swim.
