PE at St Thomas'
At St Thomas’, we strive to create a culture which aims to inspire an active generation to enjoy PE, encourage each other and achieve. We provide a safe and supportive environment for children to flourish in a range of different physical activities, which is essential in supporting their physical, emotional, spiritual, social and moral development.
We are fortunate to have our own outdoor, heated pool (funded by the PTA) which we use throughout term 6. Each class has three swimming lessons a week with their class teacher and the class teaching assistant who is life-guard trained.
Our PE Subject Leader is Mr Dale Saxby.
