At least 30 minutes should be delivered in school every day through active break times, PE, extra-curricular clubs, active lessons, or other sport and physical activity events, with the remaining 30 minutes supported by parents and carers outside of school time”

This morning: - You will be joining your child in a maths lesson. - Some lessons will be active maths lessons (although not all as we can’t get the whole school outside doing maths lessons at the same time. We timetable this throughout the week). - The session will run until 10 am so if you are planning to see more than one child, please consider this.
