P.E. Days

Our children have active unfit sessions to begin their day each morning in the unit.  As well as this, we have 2 weekly sessions for focused P.E. in the school hall.  Children are supported to take their shoes and socks off and put them back on by themselves.  Please help the children to gain independence by encouraging and supporting them with this at home.
