Move and Learn Project

In Spring term one, Year 5 took part in this Move and Learn Project run by Accrington Stanley Community Trust. Coach Josh was in school on Monday afternoons. It invovled a science lesson followed by a PE lesson.  It focussed on developing key skills in four main areas: Physical fitness; Motor coordination; Cognitive functions & creativity and Life skills. Children learn about the importance of physical activity and how to eat a balanced diet and lead an active lifestyle. They learnt how to measure their pulse, about the different food categories,  how to create a balanced healthy meal and the importance of hydration. The children got the chance to develop skills and play games of football and dodgeball. They thoroughly enjoyed the lessons, thank you Coach Josh!
