Pupil Voice

I really enjoy PE, you get the opportunity to try lots of different sports like football, cricket, netball and dance which I don't get the chance to do outside of school. I loved going to after school football club and it was fun when I played in a match against another school.

Every year, we hold a Dance Festival where each class learns and performs a different dance. This exciting event gives children the opportunity to develop their creativity, coordination and performance skills while building confidence in front of an audience. The festival is a wonderful celebration of movement, teamwork and enjoyment of dance.
