THE 6 SCHOOL GAMES VALUES

Every sports competition delivered by the School Games focus around their key values and teach the pupils about: Determination, Honesty, Respect, Passion, Teamwork and Self Belief.

 

We are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of physical activity and school sport. We are committed to using the School Games to try and engage those young people who haven’t previously been active or represented our school to try and ensure that all our students have a positive experience and want to try out new activities beyond school in our community. We believe in the power of physical activity and school sport as a school and give opportunities to those young people that need it most either as a participant, leader, official or volunteer.
