The physical and recreational development of each of our children is a priority. We have dedicated time for regular exercise, with most classes having three physical activities per week. The School utilises off-site facilities within the community for athletics, cricket, football, netball, rounders and swimming.
The development of physical skills and body awareness is an important area of focus for our Nursery and Reception class children. They work towards improving strength, flexibility, using both sides of the body, body control and balance. Most lessons take place in the school hall using gymnasium equipment except during summer months when the children are outside.
During Years 1 and 2, we gradually introduce the children to sporting skills during their weekly PE lesson with a qualified PE Teacher. In addition they have a sports afternoon with their Class Teacher, both of which are enjoyed in the school grounds.
Junior boys and girls play football as well as netball in the autumn and spring terms. During the summer term, athletics, cricket, and rounders are played. Matches are arranged and played against a variety of local independent as well as maintained schools at U10 and U11 levels.
We take all junior children swimming on a weekly basis throughout the year to Isleworth Recreation Centre where the children have swimming lessons which are taught by qualified swimming instructors supported by school staff.
Parents can see their children’s progress for themselves at our annual Swimming Gala and Sports Day, which are always well-attended, exciting family events.
