Celebrating each other and the journey we share

Physical Development

Strong physical development is important for many skills including handwriting through to climbing, and something we practise daily in Foundation Stage! We develop our gross motor skills by learning different ways to move, balance and support our bodies. Children can develop fine motor skills like scissor control, tripod pencil grip and threading. We use daily ‘dough disco’ to help support us in our journey to have strong physical skills throughout our lives.
