Due to the children’s age in Pre-Prep, they are continuing to develop fundamental movement skills and learning to perform as an individual.
All Games and PE lessons are delivered by our four full-time PE staff, with the additional assistance of other Manor staff for Games, all of who are passionate about Physical Education.
To complement the curriculum, sports clubs are open to all and are run before school, at lunchtime and after school.
Our facilities include a multi-purpose field, generously catering for numerous sports pitches, outdoor tennis and netball courts, and a state of the art Sports Hall.
In Autumn and Spring Term, the children continue to participate in their multi-skills programme as a progression from Early Years. They are also introduced to gymnastics and dance. During the Summer Term, the children explore athletics with a focus on Sports Day at the end of the year.
The children develop a variety of skills through more sport specific activities, such as Football, Tag Rugby, Hockey Heroes, Bee Netball and Cricket. The children begin to play in small sided games with a particular focus on teamwork and developing an understanding of key rules in each game.
Children in Years 1 and 2 attend bi-weekly swimming lesson all year round.
