I am an athlete. I believe anything is possible whilst being an athlete. I enjoy moving to learn and learning to move whilst learning across the curriculum. I believe I can do anything I set my mind to and I feel proud of myself when I succeed and celebrate others’ successes as well. I am a good sportsperson and show this when working as part of a team or developing my skills independently. I can see my failures as an opportunity to improve and use my resilience to change my mindset to come back motivated. This supports me to achieve my very best because I am developing a lifelong active mindset.

We believe our PE curriculum should inspire our children to succeed and excel in sport and other physically-demanding activities. We aim to provide opportunities for children to become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness. We aim to also design opportunities for our children to compete in sport and other activities that build character, grit, resilience, grace and help embed values of fairness, respect and good sportsmanship.

We have lots of fantastic sporting events which children at St Georges have been taking part in. Take a look at some of our achievements, so far, on the 'Sports News' page – you can follow the link by clicking here

What the pupils say about PE at St Georges:

What we enjoy about being athletes:

Everything.

Badminton. I love badminton and cricket.

When we play games for warm-ups.

You have fun.

When we might get more exercise.

Doing team games.

How can PE support us with friends and relationships?

PE supports friendships and relationships mainly through team games and teamwork.

It also helps with problem-solving, like when we all have to stand on a bench and move without falling off, which makes us work together.

How does learning PE help us with our feelings and emotions?

Learning PE helps with feelings and emotions because being physically active lets us take out negative emotions and forget about them for a while.

When we do PE we usually have fun, so we can forget about everything else and feel more positive.

What ELLI characters have you been as an athlete?

Busy Bee- we are always busy in PE.

Resilient Tortoise – because we keep trying to get better.

Connecting Spider - connect our learning and emotions

Wise Owl- we make wise decisions so we don’t hurt other people.
