Sport has a prominent position in the life of the school and we are fortunate to have excellent facilities to allow the children to enjoy a variety of activities. The Sports Hall incorporates badminton, basketball, tennis and netball courts, as well as two lanes of cricket nets. We have rugby, football and hockey pitches on our games field; a flood-lit field surface allows for multi-sport during the winter months.

All year groups, from Nursery to Year 6, are taught by PE specialists. Pre-Prep children are taught a variety of games skills, gymnastics and swimming. From Year 3 onwards, team sports become a central focus, with regular fixtures beginning in Year 4, with every child having the opportunity to represent the school in a match each term.

Swimming

Years 2-6 regularly swim at the Garrison Pool, Colchester, and travel by coach; details for which classes are swimming each week are published on the school calendar.
