The primary one pupils have made an excellent start to PE by learning all the gym hall routines and safety rules. They have also been developing their catching, bouncing, running, dribbling, jumping and skipping. All of the children have enjoyed learning the ‘banana dance’ warm up. They might even be able to teach it to you at home!
Over the next couple of weeks, we will be exploring passing, throwing and rolling balls at targets.

Thank you so much to Ian and Brett from the 3Sixty Bicycle Stunt Team for visiting us today. Our P1-7 pupils and staff loved the display and were amazed at some of the stunts!
