Games
and Sport
A comprehensive PE programme taught
by specialist teachers ensures that all children are
active and find enjoyment in physical activity. Children
are taught a wide range of activities including, netball,
hockey, football, cricket, swimming, rounders, tennis,
gymnastics and athletics either as part of the timetable
or in after-school clubs.
The children are encouraged to develop a positive
attitude to sport and achieve enjoyment, satisfaction
and success at their own level. Frequent fixtures
against other schools and termly Inter-year matches
promote the development of sportsmanship and team
work. Team selection for external fixtures is based
on sporting ability.
In addition, there is also the School Swimming Gala
for children in Years 2-6 and the whole School Sports
Day which are both held in the Summer Term.
