Health and Fitness 

In this unit, pupils will build on their understanding of health and fitness by learning about different types of exercises, the benefits of staying active, and making healthy food choices. They will engage in varied physical activities to develop strength, flexibility, and endurance. 

Key Vocabulary: Exercise, strength, flexibility, endurance, healthy food, active, fitness.

All students will take part in a fortnightly swimming lesson designed to build both confidence and enjoyment in the water. Our programme follows a structured level system that ensures steady progression, tailored to each child’s ability. Alongside stroke development, children also learn important water safety and personal survival skills. We aim for every child to leave Junior School as a competent, confident swimmer with the skills to participate safely in a range of aquatic environments.
