Physical Education

At West Felton C. of E Primary School, we believe PE & Sport plays an important role in making our  pupils happy and healthy individuals.  We aim to develop a balanced program offering a variety of activities which provide students with an opportunity to develop high levels of fitness, a broad spectrum of skills and the knowledge necessary to use the skills developed for a lifetime of active participation.  We believe sport can be enjoyed by all, whatever their age or physical ability.

Our big concepts in PE at West Felton:

  • Promote and encourage a healthy, active lifestyle
  • Encourage teamwork, fair play show respect and good sportsmanship.
  • Develop skills, confidence and enjoyment by participating in a broad range of physical activities
  • Be resilient learners who don’t give up and have a positive attitude to winning and losing.

P.E. and games takes place for all classes in the Forest room and on the school’s two playgrounds and field.   All children undertake gymnastics, dance, games, athletics and in Key Stage 2 swimming and outdoor and adventurous activities.   As a result of sports funding the children also have the opportunity to work with a variety of coaches throughout the school year.

Matches, tournaments and festivals in a wide range of sports are frequently arranged with other schools in the area and after school sports clubs are regularly on offer.
Swimming for Key stage 2 takes place in the Spring and Summer Terms at Oswestry school.

Shrewsbury Town coaches join us weekly for our PE lessons.

It is important that children have a clearly named P.E. kit in school at all times.

For details of our sports funding and how it is spent, please see School Information page and our latest sports news is on  the parent page.
