The St Chris PE Department aims to give every child the chance to enjoy a carousel of sporting, creative and fitness activities.
There is a focus on inclusivity and fitness, and the benefits of sport’s wider impact on a child’s development in terms of teamwork, resilience, well-being, and leadership.
All students in the Nursery have two lessons of PE and one swimming lesson per week with a specialist PE teacher.
In their lessons Nursery children focus on developing their gross motor skills and learn to negotiate space and obstacles safely, with consideration for themselves and others. They also develop strength, balance, and coordination through a play-based approach, and focus on their fundamental movement skills such as running, jumping, dancing, hopping, skipping, and climbing.
If you have any questions about sport at St Chris, please contact Lyn McGregor, Head of PE: lyn.mcgregor@stchris.co.uk
