Mission Sentence	At Brinkworth Earl Danby's School we believe that, “Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity”, (John F. Kennedy). Our Physical education curriculum aims to develop children's knowledge, skills and understanding so that they can perform with increasing confidence and competence in a range of physical activities and understand how physical fitness can impact positively on physical, mental and emotional well-being.
Inspiring Quotes	Physically educated persons are those who have learned to arrange their lives in such a way that the habitual physical activities they freely engage in make a distinctive contribution to their wider flourishing. (James MacAllister) We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort. (Jesse Owens) To keep the body in good health is a duty – otherwise, we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. (Buddha) Exercise is king. Nutrition is queen. Put them together and you’ve got a kingdom. (Jack LaLanne)
