Physical Education (PE)
Our children enjoy a range of fantastic opportunities within PE. Our specialist PE teachers teach every class for one of their two PE lessons each week and our PE Leaders organise a wide range of extra-curricular activities. Our sports teams enjoy high levels of success in local competitions and many of our pupils train at county level out of school and our Sports Leaders promote healthy life choices both in and out of school.
Our children's sporting achievements are celebrated in our termly Sports Newsletters which can be found in the News and Events section of our website, via the link below.
Children throughout the school are members of one of our four House Teams - Chichester, Drake, Murray and Nelson. Our Sports Leaders researched the famous sailors our House Teams are named after and created a presentation to share with the school. This can be seen below.
