Physical Education at The Hendreds
At The Hendreds we believe physical activity is crucial to ensuring our children remain physically and mentally healthy as well as develop to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens. Our high quality PE curriculum aims to ensure that all pupils develop the fundamental knowledge, understanding and skills to engage successfully in a wide range of physical activities. Our children benefit from working with specialist PE, swimming and judo coaches, offering all the opportunity to improve, succeed and excel. The Hendreds provides four sessions of PE a week as well as three break times throughout the day to encourage children to be active and to take enjoyment from physical activity. Our inter-house sports tournaments every term encourage communication, teamwork, leadership and a love of sport. We believe that it is important for children to foster an element of a competitive spirit as it can act as motivation to improve and better themselves, which can then be reflected in the classroom. Sportsmanship is also instilled in our children, helping them to understand respect, discipline, kindness, inclusion and perseverance.
