PE

Knowledge Organisers 

The scheme that we currently follow to support our teaching of PE is Beyond the Physical and Commando Joes. The knowledge organisers for both schemes are contained within our planning and resources.

P.E National Curriculum Aims

Resources for families

If you are wondering how to keep you and your children fit at home here are some resources to point you in the right direction. There are so many benefits to being active, not only to our physical wellbeing but also to our emotional and mental health. We hope that the ideas help support you to stay fit and healthy. These resources are easily accessible online or through apps on your smart phones or tablets.

Joe Wicks

Joe Wicks has some fantastic online PE sessions and home workouts. These are brilliant to keep fit and healthy and to keep the whole family entertained.  Click here for some YouTube videos.

Cosmic Kids Yoga

This is a really fun way of getting your kids to relax and take a step back but also enjoying being active.

Yoga is a great way to ease worries, anxieties and stress- join in with your young ones as well!

You will find Cosmic kids on YouTube- but there is also an app which you can download!

NHS Couch to 5K

The NHS Couch to 5K app from Better Health gives you a choice of coaches to support and motivate you every step of the way.

Go Noodle

The children are used to seeing this in school. This program has been created by child development experts and has some fantastic resources. There are fast pace fitness routines, dance routines, mindfulness activities and call and repeat activities. This could keep your children entertained for hours or minutes through those active brain breaks!

Swimming

Throughout the year our Year 4  children attend swimming lessons once a week at John Smeaton leisure centre. Our aim is for every child to be able to swim to a least 25 metres and understanding how to be safe in the water. The children are taught by a range of staff from the leisure centre and coached swimming staff from Whinmoor St Pauls.

The National Curriculum requirement for all children leaving Year 6 is to:

• swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres
• use a range of strokes effectively

perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations.
