The Sports Premium funding has allowed us to establish strong, sustainable partnerships with local community sports clubs and provide additional competitions outside of school. For example we employ a specialist sports coach to run many of our Before/Lunch/After School activities; Girls football coaching is provided by Kickstart, our wraparound care provider; Prestige Coaching run 'Lovely Lunches' and enrichment sessions.
Year 6 participate in an annual High Quality Adventure and Teamwork residential course at Robinwood in Lancashire. Our Y4 children also go on an overnight residential visit. The visit immerses our children in their ‘Contrasting Locality’ topic as well as taking part in team games and walking in the great outdoors!
Our annual sports day is held in summer; KS1 take part in events such as the 10m sprint, skipping, football dribbling, and egg & spoon race. KS2 have a more competitive edge to their sports day. The children are grouped in teams and compete in a range of throwing and jumping field events. Followed by a series of track races, including sprints and longer distance races.
