At Sir John Lillie Primary School we believe that Physical Education (PE) is a vital component of the holistic approach to learning. It is experienced in a safe, supportive and challenging environment promoting the physical, emotional and social development and well-being of all students and staff involved.
PE is differentiated from free play or recreational play. It is the observation, practice and sequential development of specific skills that serve a purpose in a drill, small or modified game or whole class activity. We aim to provide opportunities for children to become knowledgeable about their bodies and ability to manipulate their body in a variety of different situations.
Our PE lessons consistently work towards the attainment of a positive and proactive attitude in the individual towards their physical abilities and ideally carry these attributes into everyday lifestyle choices.
Children are expected to wear PE kits for every lesson, this includes swimming sessions for Years 3 & 4. Please see the uniform page for further information.
