As well as regular timetabled lessons of whole class PE, and a range of extra-curricular sporting activities, many children at St Peter’s get the opportunity to take part in sports taster sessions organised at local secondary schools and colleges.
So far in 2024, different groups of children from across the year groups have taken part in racquet skills sessions, tri-golf, dodgeball, netball and tag rugby tournaments. In school, meanwhile regular inter-house sports tournaments are organised to pit our different houses, named after St Oscar Romero, St John Paull II, St Teresa of Calcutta and St Mary Elizabeth, against one another over the course of the academic year.
After indoor athletics and football so far this year, the next inter-house tournament will be tennis, in keeping with the hopefully sunny and hot summer term. There is always a lot of sport going on at St Peter’s, and we will be building up to the Paris Olympic Games and the Euro 2024 tournament with further events in June and July.
