PE

Welcome to the Physical Education (PE) page for Waverley Junior Academy. As the academy is brand new, it brings with it very exciting things for sport and physical activity: consisting of a brand new sports hall, dance studio, playground, multi-sport pitches and playing fields.

Every student within the academy will access PE and will experience a multitude of sports during their time at Waverley. The sports that will be covered are: football, tag rugby, basketball, handball, dance, gymnastics, hockey, badminton, tennis, athletics, rounders, cricket, orienteering and fitness, while also progressing through the fundamental skills throughout each year group.

During their time at Waverley, the students will also be able to join academy sports teams, after school clubs, bikability events, swimming and an annual sports day. This is brilliant for young people to experience so they can hopefully access a sporting habit for life.

The ACET Long Term Planning outlines the sports each year group will take part in and the skills they will learn.
