Little Hoole Primary School

PE

Our PE Subject Champion: Mrs. Scott

Our Ten Feet Tall vision can be clearly seen in our approach to PE at Little Hoole Primary School. It is our belief that our children need opportunities to be Active, to Learn skills and to have opportunities to Represent our school.

All children are encouraged to be Active during the day, including playtimes and lunchtimes, including an additional 15 minutes each day for extra Active minutes. We have a running track, trim trails and exercise equipment to enable them to achieve this. All children Learn and develop their skills during their PE lessons each week which helps them to feel ‘positive about themselves.’ Following the Lancashire Scheme of Work for PE which is closely linked to the National Curriculum, we believe this is the right scheme of work for our children to help them feel challenged and supported’ to enable them to ‘shine’ to ‘try’ and to ‘achieve their very best.’

We place a significant focus on fundamental movement skills in EYFS and across Key Stage 1. The curriculum offers opportunities for children to build on their prior knowledge as they move through school working on activities such as gymnastics and dance, Outdoor Adventurous Activities and Games such as handball, netball, hockey, tennis and rugby. We are also proud of our approach to teaching swimming. Taking place in the Milestone 2 curriculum for PE (Years 3 & 4), children benefit from regular lessons and learning from a qualified swimming instructor. 

There are many opportunities for children to Represent our school. Working closely with South Ribble Active Sports Partnership, we have a long history of taking part in festivals and competitions in our local area. We are really proud of all the many sporting activities that we encourage children of Little Hoole to participate in during their time in our school and have really benefitted from the Sports Premium money that we have been given and to all the staff who enable these events to happen.

The Commonwealth Relay Baton Event 16th March 2022

On the 16th March 2022 Little Hoole children took part in an exciting relay event which linked schools in our local area by passing a special relay baton in preparation for the Commonwealth Games due to be held in Birmingham. Our oldest and youngest children received the Baton from two children from Hoole St Michael Primary. We passed the baton round the whole school before two of our Yr 6s headed off to pass the Baton to New Longton All Saints. It has been an exciting way to raise awareness of about the Commonwealth Games, and to be part of this much bigger event with our friends at local schools in our area.
