Llanishen Fach has developed -
and delivers - an innovative and
engaging curriculum all year round
breadth of activities with something
for everyone. By focussing on
engagement through enjoyment,
building physical confidence and
skills, all our children discover they
can take responsibility for their own
health and wellbeing, both now and
in the future.
The PE sessions are led by one
of our specialist teachers, Mrs
Max Carter who swam for Wales
in the Commonwealth Games.
Mrs Carter devises her sessions to
foster preparedness, perseverance,
resilience, and support and empathy.
Children take responsibility for
dressing appropriately for both the
activity and the weather, hot, cold,
or wet. We all have activities we
enjoy more than others; Mrs Carter
acknowledges this and encourages
pupils to continuing even if, “I am not
very good at it…”
Improving at any physical discipline
takes perseverance and a supportive
environment surrounded by caring
and encouraging friends.

our determination to promote and
build the physical and mental health
of our pupils has never faltered. We
recognise that not all our pupils are
focused on competitive glory, least
not until they find their passion, that’s
why we have developed a wide
