Gymnastics

In this unit, pupils will develop fundamental gymnastics skills such as balancing, rolling, jumping, and basic sequences. They will also focus on body control and movement patterns. Pupils will create and perform simple routines to demonstrate their skills.

Key Vocabulary: Balancing, rolling, jumping, sequence, flexibility, strength, control, posture.

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.
