Our PE days are Wednesday and Thursday    (Information about PE kit is at the bottom of this page) 

Wednesday

This will be outdoor ROUNDERS taught by Mrs Boldero-Gray

Rounders is a striking and fielding game. In this unit pupils explore their understanding of the principles of striking and fielding. Pupils learn how to score points by striking a ball into space and running around cones or bases. When fielding, they learn how to play in different fielding roles. They focus on developing throwing, catching and batting skills. In all games activities, pupils have to think about how they use skills, strategies and tactics to outwit the opposition. Pupils are given opportunities to work in collaboration with others, play fairly demonstrating an understanding of the rules, as well as being respectful of the people they play with and against.   

Thursday

This will be indoor DODGEBALL taught by Mrs Plaister.

Dodgeball is a target game. In this unit pupils will improve on key skills used in dodgeball such as throwing, dodging and catching. They learn how to apply simple tactics to outwit their opponents. In dodgeball, pupils achieve this by hitting opponents with a ball whilst avoiding being hit. Pupils are given opportunities to play games independently and are taught the importance of being honest whilst playing to the rules.

PE Kit

PE kit consists of plain white T-shirt, shorts or leggings/joggers (black or blue), black trainers and a black or blue jumper or cardigan (could be the school jumper). When we do indoor PE the children will need shorts under their trousers or ready to change into. (See detail in letter from Headteacher).

Health and Safety

Hair longer than shoulder length should be tied up and earrings need to be removed (if possible/ favorable option) If not children must tape their own ears with their own tape. Children are to have the responsibility for doing this themselves. Children can help each other. If not they do not take part in physical lesson but instead help within the lesson in another role.
