Physical Education is concerned with the promotion of positive attitudes towards physical activity and well-being. At Holy Trinity RC Primary children are helped to acquire the skills needed to participate with confidence and enjoyment in a range of individual team activities at school and in the wider community, and to appreciate the place of regular exercise as a way of keeping fit.

All children take part in a minimum of two hours of high quality PE and sporting activities each week provided by a professional sports coach alongside a member of staff.

A well-balanced programme of sporting activities is provided for the children that includes opportunities for expressive and creative movement through dance, as well as gymnastics, swimming, athletics, games and outdoor and adventurous pursuits.

Documents are available to view at the bottom of the page (overview of topics, progression of skills etc...)

Learning through co-operative and competitive activities helps to promote an understanding of inter-personal relationships.

Children have the opportunity to take part in sporting activities within the school, and with other schools, including local and county tournaments and competitions.

Our Year 5 children all receive Playground Leader Training and support other children with various challenges and activities at playtimes.

We are thrilled to have been awarded the School Games Mark Platinum award  for our contribution to sports for 2023-2024 and 2024-2025. This is a real honour for us and recognition of all the hard work and dedication of the children, their families and the staff. 

Sports Day! 

Our children thoroughly enjoyed this year’s Sports Day! Thankfully, the sun was shining as everyone took part in a range of exciting activities, showing fantastic sportsmanship and impressive skills throughout the day.

During the KS1 Sports Day, our Sports Council were a huge help in running the activities. They supported and encouraged the younger children with kindness and enthusiasm, proving to be amazing role models.

Well done to all involved for making it such a memorable and active day!
