During their time in KS2, children will also attend the Dolphin Centre for weekly swimming lessons, covering the basics of the 4 strokes and personal safety in the water.

Children are provided with various opportunities to join clubs and represent the school at sports festivals and competitive events.  We are affiliated to the Darlington Schools Sports Partnership (DSSP).

The school benefits from extensive sporting facilities, including a large playground and playing field with athletics track and a variety of keep-fit stations.  Pupils are also able to access the MUGA (Multi Use Games Area) for PE lessons and leisure time during breaks.

Escape room – SMILE day

Many pupils in KS2 experienced a new kind of sporting activity when they took part in an Escape Room SMILE Day. Each class was divided into Four teams and each team had to solve challenges in order to find clues. The clues were used to help discover the combination of a locked box, in which treasure would be found. It was great to see pupils working in teams to solve problems and the excitement around the hall was easy to see.

Well done everyone for solving the clues and finding the treasure!
