This unit introduces Reception students to the fundamental concepts of attack and defence through playful, imaginative games centred around sharks and fishes. The focus extends beyond physical skills to encompass crucial social learning about fairness, turn-taking, and following rules in group activities. Through carefully scaffolded experiences, students develop both tactical awareness and essential life skills that form the foundation for all future competitive activities.
This unit introduces Reception students to fundamental movement patterns and basic ball handling through carefully structured play-based activities. The emphasis is on developing spatial awareness, body control, and confidence with equipment whilst fostering early cooperation skills. Through progressive challenges that move from individual exploration to simple partner work, students build the movement foundations essential for future invasion games whilst maintaining the joy and curiosity natural to this age group.
