Six Week Focus (activities planned, school trips etc)
We are focusing on the topic of the Olympics. We are exploring what it takes to be an athlete: physical and mental fitness. Pupils are learning about food and nutrition and will be categorising food into food groups. They are also reflecting on the food choices they make and are being encouraged to make healthy choices. Pupils are also developing their fitness during P.E. and have been taking part in Olympic type activities.
