P.E.

At Edwards we like to participate in a wide range of fun and games. The physical development, health and well-being of children is a key aspect in our curriculum. 

Through a broad and balanced Physical Education programme, children should develop their knowledge, understanding and skills, enabling them to participate and perform competently and confidently in a range of physical activities.

All children should experience a sense of fun, enjoyment and achievement through a variety activities.

A big thank you to Heather Hunter and Stephen Lowry from Lowry Construction who designed and purchased new PE bags for every pupil in the school.
