Sports at St Anne’s 2018-2019

“One man can be a crucial ingredient on a team, but one man cannot make a team. ”

– Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

We provide a variety of sporting opportunities at St Anne’s.  We have an exciting provision of sports in the curriculum, plus our lunch time clubs and after school clubs. All of our children are taught how to swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres, use a range of strokes effectively and perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations.  We also participate in friendly and competitive matches with local schools and have competed within the South West Area of Schools competitions. We enjoy having professional coaches in to teach our children.

In April 2013, the government announced that £150 million would be released to fund primary school physical education and sport as part of the London 2012 Olympic legacy.   Please read how we have used our Sports Premium funding to support the Sports provision within our school.  Sport Premium action plan 2017-18 April 2018 and our Sport Premium Action and Impact Plan 2017 – 2018

Cross Country Event

On Thursday 18th October, children from Yr4 and Yr5 took part in the North Somerset School PE Association Cross Country event at Hutton Moor playing fields. We entered a boys and girls team for both Yr4 and Yr5 groups. The Yr4 children ran 800 meters; this is a fun run to introduce the children to cross country. Yr5 team ran 1km. The school games value for this event was determination and I challenged the children to complete the course without stopping or walking. On the day the conditions were perfect for running. All 21 children ran brilliantly and completed the course without walking. They were all very proud of themselves and I am very proud of everyone who took part. In the boys Yr3/4 race, Giovanni finished 2nd , the girls Yr5 team came 3rd and the boys Yr5 team came 4th.Thank you to Mrs Youhill and Mrs Spencer for helping at this event and for all the support from all the parents

Rugby Tournament
On October 19th, Weston Rugby Club held a World Cup Touch Rugby Tournament. Schools were invited to bring two teams along to the event. We took a team from Year 5 and Year 4. Each team were given a country from around the world and we were given USA. There were pool groups for each age group, with both teams playing brilliantly. Teams played in either the cup, shield and plate plays offs. Year 5 team played lovely rugby showing good team work and were narrowly beaten. Year 4 team played equally as well showing good skill with half the team playing the game for the first time. The good team work of Year 4 paid off, they managed to progress to the cup final narrowly losing to Bournville School.
