Physical Education

Does your child like to run, hop, skip, and jump? Then we have the Physical Education program for you! In Physical Education (Gym) class with M. Doyle, students participate in a variety of movement activities, games, fitness. They develop motor skills, critical thinking, problem solving, positive social interaction, creativity, perseverance, and tolerance of frustration. In addition, we hope to encourage a lifetime of healthy living.

Please be sure your child comes to school wearing appropriate footwear for P.E. and recess (rubber-soled shoes) or keeps a pair of "gym shoes" in their locker.

During their time in gym, students work on the following "building blocks" of Physical Education:
