Physical education plays a vitally important part in each child’s development. The key areas of games, dance, gymnastics and athletics, are taught throughout the year, with children taking part in some form of physical activity every day such as 'Mile a Day' on our all weather track.
The emphasis in all PE lessons is the acquisition of skills and the improvement of performance. Healthy competition is encouraged, particularly as the children develop their ability to take part in competitive games. The school participates in a number of inter-school sports and football, hockey, rounders, athletics and cricket are all played competitively against other schools in the area.
In the summer, a traditional sports day is held which includes races such as egg and spoon, sack and obstacle. This is an occasion enjoyed by the whole school community with the children being cheered down the track by a large crowd of enthusiastic children, family and friends. Facilities for physical education in the school are very good; there is a large sports field, a large playground, a hall for indoor activities.
