Intent

At St Breward School PE is very important to us, we aim to ensure pupils are physically active and lead a healthy lifestyle. To achieve this we work with the Arena Sports Partnership. We aim to build on the success of Olympics and ensure that the legacy continues in our schools and with our children. Inspiring the next generation of young people to enjoy and participate in PE and School Sport.

Implementation

Our P.E. lessons are varied and fast paced. The children take part in a range of games, dance, gymnastics and swimming activities.

We regularly attend inter school festivals to promote fair play, sportsmanship, developing skills and promoting a love for sport. These festivals also benefit staff through high quality CPD opportunities.

After schools are well attended by a range of children and this year we have been lucky to be joined by Plymouth Argyle for out football training.

To encourage children to be as active as possible throughout the school day, we have morning active breaks including wake and shake, team games, daily mile and key skill activities,

Sports leaders are excellent role models and valuable members of the school. They help to promote physical activity and sports throughout the school. The leaders arrange games and activities for all ages during break times and lunch times. Sports leaders feedback pupils voice during regularly meeting with Miss Simpson and help to make decisions regarding after school clubs, sports day and maintain the sports board to provide relevant information to pupils.

The school provides swimming lessons for children in KS2. The children attend Camelford leisure centre weekly for 6 weeks. We are passionate about helping all children to meet the expectation to swim 25m by the end of key stage 2.

Miss Simpson is our PE coordinator and is very proud of the positive attitude presented by the children towards PE and sport. Our small school make a big effort to engage with and enjoy PE.

Go Active

We also work with Go Active who provide St Breward children with additional opportunities such as fencing, alongside expert tuition.

Impact

Children at St Breward School will tell you that they love sport! We ensure that all children have access to sporting events, whatever their ability. This means children leave our school healthy and confident, having had experience in a wide range of sporting fields.

Events

Porthpean Residential

The children from Key Stage 2 attended a residential at Porthpean Outdoor for 3 days of adventurous activities. The children loved everything from climbing to stand up paddle boarding. Thanks Porthpean!

Sponsored Walk

This year's annual sponsored walk was another success. All children (including Reception) made it up the tor. They were rewarded with refreshments kindly donated by our lovely PTA.

Gymnastics

Key Stage 2 had a fantastic time learning gymnastics this year. We used the Cornwall Gymnastics Centre to access quality staffing and equipment. The progress achieved was amazing and all had a good time.

Sports Day 2024

We had a fantastic sunny Sport Day, the children competed in their teams to complete a range of events, that had been planned by the Sports Leaders. It was great to see all children having fun, working together and showing determination and great sportsmanship. This year we are very grateful to the St Breward Football Club for allowing us use of their grounds.

Well done to the winners Green Team!

Football

Girls from Key Stage 2 attended a football tournament. A fantastic time was had by all as they proved - we may be small but we are still mighty!

Bike Ability

Years 5 and 6 took part in Bike Ability this year. It was a massive success, with all children passing, despite the unique obstacles of St Breward - cows and horses on the road! Well done to all involved.
