Please remember that your child needs to come to school in their PE kit, with the same colour t-shirt as their houses, or school PE kit if you cannot find a suitable coloured one. They should also bring a sun hat and water bottle and have applied sun cream before they come to school.

We are very excited about the day and hope that you enjoy it as much as we do!

Unlike previous years, our Sports Day for KS2 will take place over the entire morning with more competitive events with children cheering on their teams. The track and field events will occur at the same time. 

Track: Object Pick Up, Sack, Skipping, Hurdles, Sprint and Long Distance. 

Field: Vortex Throw, Netball Throw, Beanbag Throw and Standing Long Jump 

 

For each event, there are separate races for Y3 girls, Y3 boys, Y4 girls, Y4 boys, Y5 girls, Y5 boys, Y6 girls, Y6 boys, running in that order, one after the other. The relay races will then occur after all of the track and field events, followed by the parent / teacher races.

We aim to begin the day at 9.15am and KS2 should finish around 12noon for their lunch. They will then return outside at 2.30pm for the special shuttle run, as well as the award ceremony.  We are very excited to tell you that Gully, the Brighton and Hove Albion mascot, will also be joining us for this!

As you will appreciate, it is very difficult to make an accurate prediction of timings as there are so many factors involved in running the day. We sincerely hope that you are able to make it and that you see your child/children enjoying Sports Day.
