Welcome
to the Duffy School
Physical Education Web Page!
It is a great pleasure to be
able to tell you about the exciting physical education program that we have
planned for your children.
All students have physical education twice weekly. Children in grades K-3 meet for 30 minutes in each session, and those in grades 4 & 5 meet for 45 minutes.
Youngsters in grades K-3 are required to wear sneakers and comfortable clothing. Fourth and fifth graders should bring shorts, T-shirts, socks and sneakers. These may be kept in a secure gym locker that is assigned to each student.
Our
activities provide for a wide variety of experiences, beginning with basic motor
skills and exploration, and including team activities of all types...including
dance!
We
make use of a great deal of equipment to enhance their experiences. The
focus of this program is on each individual youngster, as we attempt to improve
their self-confidence, increase their positive experiences in movement and
encourage them to strive to be the best they can be.
There are three members of the physical education staff this year. Mr. DeVeau is at Duffy all day Thursday and Nick Moffo is at Duffy full-time.
Please feel free to contact us at any time. It will be our pleasure to help with any questions or concern
