We have a very busy term ahead for PE and sport in school!
I attended the Hertfordshire Primary PE conference on Tuesday and came back with some fantastic ideas to enhance the children’s experiences of PE and sport in school.
Years 1 and 2 are continuing their fundamental skills with a focus this half term on using a variety of equipment to move, turn, control, hit, pass and aim for targets.
Years 3 and 4 are focusing on Basketball this half term, aiming to develop their dribbling, shielding, passing and shooting skills as well as working in teams in various game situations.
Years 5 and 6 are focusing on Netball this half term with the aim to develop their passing, pivot/footwork, shooting and knowledge and understanding of positions.
Years 3 – 6 will have Intra-house competitions in the above sports before the half term break.
There are lots of sports fixtures coming up this term including Year 4, A, B, C and Girls team football matches, A and B team Netball matches and end of season football and netball rallies. We are also looking forward to the Year 5/6 Sportshall athletics and hockey competitions as well as a Year 3/4 speed stacking competition.
All clubs have restarted this week with the addition of a Year 1 and 2 Popdance club on a Thursday lunchtime. The children who have signed up all really seemed to enjoy themselves! Running club on Friday morning is now open to Year 4 children (as well as Year 5/6) and we have had a really good turnout even on these freezing January mornings!
It has been a great start back, keep up the good work everyone!
