Please help us!

At the moment we are having a hugely stressful time on P.E. days.  The problem is with getting the children changed and the time spent sorting out spare kit, mixed up un-named clothes and helping children to dress themselves. All of these things are eating into lesson time.  We would be really grateful if you could help us out in the following ways:

• Make sure your child has a full P.E. kit, including pumps, in school every Tuesday and Friday.
• Make sure all of your child's clothing is clearly labelled with their name.
• Encourage your child to dress themselves at home.  We are happy to help with tricky buttons and laces but children should be able to put on their own trousers, skirts, jumpers, socks etc.
• Try to send your child wearing clothes that are easy to put on/take off on P.E. days.

Many Thanks

We Can Balance.

This week in P.E. class R have been learning to balance.  On Tuesday we got the mats out and practised balancing in lots of different ways on different parts of our bodies.  We learnt that you have to try and hold a balance still for 3 seconds and that a balance looks even better with straight arms and legs and pointed toes.  On Friday we had the large apparatus out and we practised doing balances on the apparatus too. Here are some photos of us balancing:
