Physical Education (PE)

Sport has remained central to both our curriculum and extra-curricular provision.  We know this is hugely beneficial to all our children. We have invested heavily with the P.E. and sport provision, with inclusion for all.Our PE curriculum is based around the Bolton Council Scheme of work covering Athletics, Games, Dance, Gymnastics and Outdoor Adventure. Pupils in Y3 undertake an intensive block of swimming instruction.

In addition to this, we work closely with Chorley School Sports Partnership (Chorley SSP). Chorley SSP is a community interest company working to improve the educational experience for all young people through PE, school sport, health and cultural activities. Their aim is to inspire the next generation to develop lifelong participation in physical activity and an understanding of the importance of physical and mental well-being. St. Catherine's pupils take part in a long list of competitions and festivals organised by Chorley SSP for the Horwich and Blackrod cluster of schools.
