P.E., SWIMMING, COMPETITIONS & EVENTS CALENDAR
The P.E. Curriculum at St Martin’s Primary School operates on a ‘Sport for All’ philosophy, where
children participate and develop their own physical skills and strategies according to their own abilities. For more able and/or competitive children there are opportunities to compete against children in other local schools in a range of sporting activities from individual fixtures to local and regional tournaments.
Our aims are to:
All staff at St Martin’s promote and encourage sportsmanship, team spirit and the need to improve performance through healthy physical activity. The school was awarded Healthy School Initiative status, which promotes exercise and a sensible balanced diet.
At St Martin’s we offer a wide range of Extra Curricular Sports Clubs to give our children additional opportunities to access sport in a fun, safe and welcoming environment. Over the course of the year we will be running clubs aimed at all age groups. Please keep an eye on the monthly Newsletter, SchoolPing and Letters home via children for more information.
The National Curriculum requires all children leaving Primary School are able to swim at least 25 metres. Our current Swimming Policy is to provide swimming lessons to all children in Year 6 that are unable to swim 25 metres.
At St Martin’s Primary School we believe swimming is a hugely important life skill, which is why we are aiming to offer all children the opportunity to learn water safety and gain confidence in the water whilst learning to swim during their time at school.
Our School Swimming Policy has changed from January 2014 to reflect our aims thanks to the Governments new Sport Premium Funding. From January 2014 all our Year 2 children have been attending weekly swimming lessons, in addition to this Year 6 non-swimmers will also continue to receive weekly lessons.
North Somerset Schools Primary Competition Calendar 2019-20: proposed
Please find below the provisional primary competition calendar for 2019-2020. If circumstances force a change of date/venue, every effort will be made to ensure that appropriate notice is given.
It is our intention to offer different pathways at some events, with ‘large’ and ‘small’ school entry, as well as ‘competition’ and ‘participation’ options. Full details of these separate pathways will be communicated when they are uploaded to the competition website and in the pre-event essential information forwarded to registered schools.
School Games and PE Association events are differentiated in the calendar overview by their highlighted colour. Charges will only be made for School Games events where there is a need to hire venues and/or deploy staff in ensuring a competition runs safely. Only incurred costs will be passed onto schools and evidence of these can be shared on request.
