The Curriculum
Physical Education and Sport
A variety of physical activities are offered to children throughout the school and we aim to give a balance of experience. This includes:
- Gymnastics
- Movement and dance
- Athletics
- Games
- Swimming
- Outdoor and adventurous activities
All children are expected to take part in these activities unless excluded for medical reasons.
Greens Norton CE Primary School is proud of its strong sporting tradition.
We aim to give all the children the opportunity to take part in sporting activities within the school day and through extra curricular activities.
In lessons our youngest children are taught basic skills such as catching, throwing and kicking. These and other skills are developed throughout the school so that all children can participate to the best of their ability in our sporting programme.
Children play football, netball, rugby, rounders, hockey and cricket and junior children enjoy swimming at Towcester Centre for Leisure.
After-school sporting clubs are encouraged and are run by staff and coaches. These include netball, football and basketball.
Sporting teams represent our school in athletics, cricket, football, netball and cross-country running. Fixtures are arranged against other local schools and our teams have scored many notable successes.
