Activity

Impact

Table Tennis, Badminton, Lawn Tennis

Children's work, behaviour and even physical health as well as mental health can be improved by getting them involved in playing ball relating activities.

Special Educational Needs Pupils

Sports teach teamwork and problem-solving skills, boosts self-esteem and helps reduce pressure and stress.  This also helps with co-ordination.

Swimming

 Shalom Noam Primary very much wish to take part in swimming, particularly for KS2.  At the moment all plans for this has been put on hold due to COVID.

EYFS – Stretch & Grow

Pre School Programme

97.9% of nurseries surveyed believe that children who attend Stretch & Grow classes develop a basic awareness of their bodies.

Children are learning all the time about the benefits of exercising, they learn about their bodies, their muscles, about eating healthily and lots of other relevant topics

Sports Day

This has many benefits to both children and staff alike. The day helps children develop mental and physical toughness.  Sports improve their blood circulation and their physical well-being.
