Physical Education
The school’s PE policy sets out aims which are designed to…
• Encourage a positive attitude to sport.
• Provide opportunities for participation to every child.
• Improve physical skills.
• Provide new experiences and set new challenges.
The children participate in
many tournaments and
competitions throughout the
year. Each class has two
sessions of physical education
per week during which sports
skills are taught. Pupils receive
football coaching each week
from an IFA coach and P4 - P7
are given swimming lessons at
different times in the school
year. We are fortunate to have
a large school playing field, 2
hard core pitches and a multi-
purpose hall for indoor
sporting activities.
Children in Primary 7 are also encouraged to participate in the National Cycling Proficiency Scheme.
In recent years we have enjoyed much sporting success in netball, rugby, volleyball, hockey and football.
