Physical Education
Physical Education covers the areas of dance, gymnastics, games, swimming and fitness. The children are taught to develop their own physical abilities and skills. We encourage healthy attitude and lifestyle alongside physical activities.
Children will have opportunity to take part in sporting activities as an extra curricular activity throughout the school year.
All children require their P.E kit to be available in school. The kit is a blue t- shirt and black shorts or black jogging bottoms (especially in the winter). All kit should be labelled with the child's name.
Sports for School update
We have been waiting for all of the sponsor money to be collected, counted and added to our online donations. The total monies raised will be published in the newsletter week beginning 8th July and prizes will be distributed too. Thank you for you patience.
Sports Day

Congratulations to the winning team St Andrew's for collecting the most team points.

GB Athletes who inspire kids
We are excited to announce that on Tuesday 21st May 2024 we will be receiving a visit from the GB Paralympian Antony Cotterill. Antony Cotterill will be leading a sponsored fun fitness circuit for the children to take part in, followed by a motivational speech and a question and answer session.
The money raised will be used to buy new equipment to help continue to increase the physical activity in our school and to help support GB athletes to inspire the next generation.
Please ensure that your child has their PE kit in school on this day as they will need to wear it for this event.
Thank you in advance for your support.

Write Dance
Reception have really enjoyed their write dance lessons this half term. Each session we start out by using our own movements to dance to a piece of music, we then use gross motor movements to complete a dance before using the same movements on a smaller scale to mark make in different mediums, such as chalk, crayons and shaving foam!
