PE Curriculum
All classes are taught 5 different PE strands each year: Athletics, Aquatics, Gymnastics, Games, Outdoor and Adventure. Each class receives at least an hour per week of physical education.By taking part in the Active School Flag programme it has helped us to focus on an improved provision of Physical Education in the school. We have completed many activities throughout the year during PE time. Have a look at some of them.

For something different we invited a local Zumba teacher in to take part in dance classes with everyone from Juniors to 6th class great fun was had.
Teachers go back to School
All the teachers completed a PDST course on how to teach gymnastics. We all learned so much that will benefit the school going forward. We have all earmarked January as a month for the whole school to participate in Gymnastics.
