Physical Education
The aim is to enable each pupil to perform basic gross motor skills at the level of their ability, to help each pupil use these skills in play and daily living activities and to maximise their health, growth and development. The programme is designed to promote each pupil’s enjoyment and to enhance feelings of self-worth and self-confidence while moving to learn and learning to move.
The Grade 2’s and Grade 3’s have two afternoon sports lessons a week. If your daughter is unable to participate in a sports lesson, a letter to the teacher with the relevant explanation is necessary.
St Peter’s has a full-time Physical Education teacher within the Junior Prep Department. During lessons gross motor skills, ball skills, swimming gymnastics, athletics, netball and hockey are taught.
