Our School Day:  Physical Education

We aim to promote physical activity and healthy lifestyles in accordance with the National Curriculum. This means each year Key Stage 1 children are taught three areas of activity - Games, Gymnastics and Dance, and Key Stage 2 children also cover Swimming, Athletic activities and Outdoor/adventure activities.  Swimming is also available to Key Stage 1 pupils.

The school has a large hall for indoor activities, a playing field adjacent to the building and access to larger playing fields which we share with the local community.

By the last year the older children have had the opportunity to play many team games, including Football, Cricket, Rounders, Hockey, Tennis and Touch Rugby, as well as taking part in the Chew Valley Dance Festival production (Classes 1, 3 & 6), performing both traditional and contemporary dance.  The school has active Football and Netball teams competing with local schools in friendly matches.  There are many opportunities now developing for children to work with staff from Chew Valley School / and or Sports coaches due to its recent Performing Arts Status and Sports College links.  Throughout the year children have the opportunity to take part in a variety of festivals and tournaments for many different areas of sport, including rugby, tag tails, football, netball, multi sports and striking and fielding at Chew Valley School, and tennis at Bishop Sutton Tennis Club.

In 2008 we were awarded the Activemark in recognition of the school's outstanding commitment to sport and P.E.
