Physical Education at Elms Farm

At our school, our team encourages a love of physical activity through physical education. We encourage children to learn the skills required for different sports and also to improve understanding of intrinsic motivation, the ability to compete with oneself as well as against other individuals. Skills that are learned refer to outdoor activities, invasion games, dance, gymnastics and personal fitness.

Our main vision for our children is to use Physical Education to allow children to develop a healthy, active lifestyle while allowing them to develop the skills to complete this physical activity in any way they like: individual exercise, competitive sport or even just to have fun with friends.

Aims:

• To develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities.
• To be physically active for sustained periods of time.
• To engage in competitive sports and activities.
• To lead healthy, active lives.
