We offer rich provision for Physical Education

Not only do we plan our curriculum carefully so that children gradually learn a range of skills but we also encourage them to access a range of different sporting activities both within school and outside. Throughout the year we take part in a wide variety of intra and inter school sports competitions and festivals.

For intra sports every child is put into a colour team and takes part in competitions linked to the PE curriculum.
Sports teams take part in inter school sports competitions and festivals throughout the year. Listed below are the events we take part in.

Children also have the opportunity to participate in different sports on and off site such as kickboxing, contemporary dance, archery, outdoor adventure, country dancing and yoga.

Swimming Lessons

Each KS2 class has swimming lessons for a term.  We ask for a contribution towards the cost of hiring Huish Leisure and their instructors/life guards.  We do need at least two volunteers to help walk the children to and from the pool – without volunteers, this activity may not be possible.
