This resource has been developed by primary teachers to bring your child’s Physical
Education experience home. The PE Homework - Active Every Day activities are
designed to complement the activities that your child is learning in school.
Research shows that physical education, as an integral part of your child’s
education, provides vital opportunities for physical, social, emotional and intellectual
development. Children who experience joy and fun through the medium of movement
at school are more likely to continue to be active later in life if they have the
opportunity to practise what they have learned in a wide range of environments, such
as the home and community. This enables them to develop Physical Literacy.
