We are delighted to announce that we have achieved the GOLD Mark Award for the 2023/24 academic year.

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

With all of our young people competing in local competitions or festivals this year, we are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.

As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.

A special thanks to Miss Jackson and last years Bronze Ambassadors. 

We look forward to applying once again in 2025!

60 Active Minutes a Day

A brief reminder of the importance of the ’60 active minutes a day’ initiative. See attached a ’60 active minutes a day’ document giving ideas & links to videos etc. for activity for each day of the week. It is really important that we are all active for at least 60 minutes a day and rather than struggle with ideas, take a look at the document below. 

I have also included a link that gives some ideas for fun fitness games. It has been produced by ACE (American Council of Exercise)
