PE and Sport Premium

Every year at Langdale CE Primary School, children receive quality first teaching in Physical Education. This is delivered in a range of different ways, by qualified teachers and coaches using the fantastic facilities on offer to us in our school grounds and in the surrounding community.

Every child who leaves our school at the end of Year 6 will have experienced a wealth of different sports and have acquired skills and knowledge to take forward with them into secondary school and life beyond.

Our school values of understand others, try new things, imagine, reflect and improve, push yourself and don't give up are perfectly placed to run alongside the values of the School Games.

Throughout all of our PE lessons and during competitions and festivals which we participate in, we always talk to the children about the values we will see on show. Children develop a growing knowledge of these values, and their meanings, through participating in sports (individually and in teams).

In 2019-20, we ensured that all children in Key Stage Two had access to a range of sporting events. These events were played at a variety of levels, from friendly festivals to competitive competitions.

During the school closure (summer term) children were encouraged to stay active via social media. Links to Joe Wicks, BBC Bitesize, Oak Academy plus others were shared often as was the National Sports Week challenge.

In 2018-19 we made sure that all children within Key Stage 2 had access to a range of sporting inter-school festivals and competitions to participate in. All children took part in at least 5 events over the academic year. We also developed our provision within school so that all children experienced some form of intra-school events; such as house matches or class games within PE lessons.

Key Stage 1 also participated in friendly sporting festivals, such as cricket, as well as joining in with whole school taster sessions in Judo and Cumberland Wrestling.

Youth Sport Trust - National School Sports Week 2020

As part of the National School Sports Week, a challenge was set for all pupils (and staff/families) to get active whether at home as part of their remote learning or in the school bubbles.

The 'Langdale School Challenge' consisted of seeing how many star jumps, ball catches, lunges, squats and hops could be completed in 1 minute.

Competition both at home and in the bubbles was fierce!

We completed the following amounts as a school community:

Star jumps - 2561

Ball catches - 1993

Lunges - 2187

Squats - 2418

Hops - 3109

WOW!! A very well done to everyone who took part.

Sports relief 2020

On Friday 13th March, we took part in Sports relief by running our daily mile. Everyone in the school, from nursery and reception right up to year 6 (and the adults), took part in the run which took us out of the school grounds and down the footpath to Bays Brown Campsite and back. The atmosphere was fantastic and everyone supported each other to walk, jog, skip or run the distance. We managed to raise a very impressive £75.73, which will be donated and used for some fantastically worthwhile causes.
