PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical Development and Movement in the Foundation Stage and Physical Education in Key Satges 1&2 includes:

  • Athletics

  • Dance

  • Games

  • Gymnastics

  • Swimming (P6/P7)

In St Joseph’s P.S., we focus on the development of fundamental movement skills to support children's physical development and long-term health and well-being. We strive to improve children's co-ordination, locomotion, control, balance and manipulation skills. We encourage them to gain confidence and self-esteem and to feel the benefits of being healthy and active. We also avail of specialist coaching to complement the school's P.E. programme.

Mrs Campbell co-ordinates Physical Education in our school.
