PE Curriculum

At Riddlesden St Mary's we aspire to provide a high-quality, inclusive Physical Education curriculum that inspires our pupils to have a lifelong association with sport and physical activity. Our PE curriculum is designed to offer a broad range of physical activity opportunities to ensure all pupils are developed physically and socially, whilst at the same time improving their health and wellbeing. Our teaching and learning incorporates our values of friendship, trust, respect, peace, forgiveness and courage.

Exciting Sports Opportunities and Enrichment at Riddlesden St Mary's 

At Riddlesden St Mary's , we are dedicated to providing a dynamic and enriching Physical Education experience for all our students.

In Autumn 1, we were thrilled to welcome back Jordan from Yorkshire Cricket Club, who delivered fantastic cricket sessions for Years 3 and 4. The students not only learned how to play cricket but also developed key skills in teamwork, coordination, and sportsmanship.

Our Year 4 students have also been enjoying an exciting tennis enrichment programme. They visit East Riddlesden Tennis Club, where Coach James helps them master the fundamentals of tennis while fostering a love for the sport.

Throughout the year, all year groups will have the chance to improve their cycling skills through our dedicated bike training sessions. These activities aim to build confidence and ensure students can ride safely and effectively.

Additionally, we are excited that swimming lessons for Years 2 to 6 will resume with the amazing team from Kanga in our summer term. This programme helps children develop essential swimming skills and water confidence, contributing to their overall physical development and safety.

We are proud of the diverse opportunities we offer, ensuring every child enjoys being active and learns valuable life skills through sport!
