Primary Sports Clubs

We are pleased to offer lunchtime sports clubs for primary students, providing fun, engaging opportunities to develop skills, confidence, and a love of physical activity.

Sessions are led by a combination of external coaches, primary sports staff, and senior student leaders.

Programme Overview

  • Sports offered may vary each term, depending on:
    • Facility availability
    • Staffing and student coach availability and timetables
  • Wherever possible, the sports selected will align with upcoming team competitions in the following term or season, helping students build skills and confidence before progressing into school teams.

Student Expectations

For all lunchtime primary sports clubs, students are expected to:

  • Eat their lunch promptly
  • Change into appropriate sports attire
  • Proceed promptly to the designated club location

This ensures sessions start on time and students gain the maximum benefit from each activity.​​​​​​​
