Gym and movement classes are conducted in the American Church. Each class benefits not only from daily outdoor recess time, but also a formal gym class once a week. This is used to help the children coordinate their fine- and gross-motor skills.
Basic exercises include running, skipping, jumping, ball-throwing and catching, and team sports such as relay racing and handball.
We make available a wide variety of equipment during the gym period such as different-sized balls, hoops, beanbags, jump ropes, etc. Starting in the Nursery class, the children also take swimming lessons with a qualified instructor at the local pool.
