Amazing PE at St Anne's
Intent
At St. Anne's we understand how important it is for our pupils to leave primary school as healthy, fit active children who show tolerance towards others and good sportsmanship. Through sport, we hope that our children will learn that hard-work, dedication and a, ‘never give up attitude’ will not only benefit them through sport, but also through life; whatever avenues they choose to pursue.
We also understand how important it is for our pupils to engage in regular activity and recognise that a healthy diet is key when leading a full life-style. We have therefore put together a carefully crafted curriculum to ensure that the sporting educational journey our pupils take with us is a successful one, and prepares them for the next stage in their education and life.
Adaptations are made to PE lessons to ensure that all children are able to access the curriculum and are not disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disability.
- ‘The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.’ – Pele, football
- ‘I’ve failed over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.’ – Michael Jordan, basketball
- ‘A champion is defined not by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall.’ – Serena Williams, tennis
- ‘Courage, sacrifice, determination, commitment, toughness, heart, talent, guts. That’s what little girls are made of; the heck with sugar and spice.” Bethany Hamilton, surfer
- ‘As long as you have discipline, you can be a success.’ Anthony Joshua, boxer
Implememtation
PE at St. Anne’s Primary School provides challenging and enjoyable learning through a range of sporting activities including; invasion games, strike and field games, gymnastics, dance and swimming.
The long term plan sets out the PE units which are to be taught throughout the year and ensures that the requirements of the National Curriculum are fully met.
Pupils participate in two PE lessons each week (one delivered by our amazing PE coach Miss Gould and the other by class teachers), covering up to two sporting disciplines every half term. In addition, children are encouraged to participate in the varied range of extra-curricular activities. Also, children can attend after school sport clubs run by our sport coach Miss Gould.
Children are invited to attend competitive sporting events within the local area. This is an inclusive approach which endeavours to encourage not only physical development but also mental well-being. These events also develop teamwork and leadership skills and are very much enjoyed by the children.
Each year a small group of Year 6 children are invited to become Sports Leaders for the school. They develop into sporting role models for the younger children, assisting with a range of Sporting activities.
Children in Year 4 swim once a week for 10 weeks during the Spring Term.
We have launched the “Daily Mile”, to help meet the government target of all children being active for at least 60 minutes a day.

Impact
At St. Anne’s, we help motivate children to participate in a variety of sports through quality teaching that is engaging and fun. From our lessons, our children learn to take responsibility for their own health and fitness, many of whom also enjoy the success of competitive sports. We equip our children with the necessary skills and a love for sport. They will hopefully grow up to live happy and healthy lives utilising the skills and knowledge acquired through PE.

We loved the visit by Adrian Patrick who upskilled the children - he spent 20 minutes with each year group - in their sprinting technique! Have a look...
