Be Active
A group of teachers have completed Be Active training. Each year 2nd class are given the opportunity to learn new sports skills alongside teachers and parents.
Skipping
We have a Skip Hop day every year. A Skip Hop instructor teaches 1st – 6th Class how to skip in different ways. The children really enjoy this day and the demonstration at the end of the day. Skipping is a fun way for children (and adults!) to keep fit.
Tennis
We have a tennis coach teaching children from 1st – 6th Class. The classes start off with basic skills and get more challenging as the children progress.
Athletics
Ms O Neill trains our athletics teams. The children compete in cross country competitions.
