Pennthorpe Sports

How we keep our children fit

In a team or individually, the opportunities for sports activity and exercise are huge.

A multi-purpose sports hall, large playing fields and 2 tennis and netball courts provide unrivalled sports facilities.

The main sports played are:

• Autumn: netball, soccer and hockey
• Spring: netball, rugby, hockey and ‘Touch Rugby’
• Summer: rounders, cricket and athletics

In addition to team sports all classes have one PE session a week; Reception to Year 3 go swimming each week at the Cranleigh Leisure Centre. Other sports include swimming, basketball, tennis and badminton, cross country running, gymnastics, horse riding and badminton. Modern dance is also taught throughout the school.

Healthy competition is encouraged in which pupils strive for their own performance goals and yet we recognise and indeed stress the value of teamwork.
