Sports

Sport is a vital part of our school community, playing a central role in children’s physical and social development. Through regular sporting activities both curricular and extra-curricular, children build resilience, teamwork skills, and self-confidence as they learn to set goals, face challenges, and support each other. Sport also promotes a healthy lifestyle, encouraging physical fitness, discipline, and mental well-being. By participating in various team sports and individual challenges, students can discover their strengths and develop lifelong habits that benefit both their bodies and minds. Our commitment to sport reflects our belief in nurturing well-rounded students who value collaboration, perseverance, and a positive attitude towards healthy competition.

We have girls and boys' football teams, netball, cricket, tag rugby, swimming, cross-country, golf and athletics teams who represent the school in festivals and competitions across the year.

Sporting Events

19.03.25 Swimming Gala

We took a team down to the Brighton and Hove Schools’ swim gala and were very proud of everyone’s great team-work, strength and skill. Connie and Ryan, the team captains, lead their
teams brilliantly.

03.03.25 Brighton College Sports Festival

We took a team of year 4s to a multi-sports festival at Brighton College. The team had a great time playing hockey, basketball, rugby and netball with a bit of training and a match in each sport at the end. It was lovely meeting other schools and learning new skills. Apparently, the best part was the cookie, fruit and popcorn at the end!

We are looking forwards to getting back into sporting activities, with boys’ and girls’ football matches booked, the indoor athletics next week and a swim gala coming up. We had swim trials this week and have confirmed our swim team for the 2025 events.

05.11.24 Football Match with Stanford at home.

What a fabulous event, the children had lots of fun and showed incredible team work. Well done to both the girls and boys teams.

Brighton and Hove Tag Rugby Festival

Some of our year 5 and year 6 girls went to the Brighton and Hove tag rugby festival last week.

This was to celebrate the Womens’ Rugby World Cup coming to England in 2025 with some matches being played here in Brighton! Our girls had a great time and put up a great display of skill and teamwork.
