Physical education, physical activity and sport stand alone under the heading of Physical Education
Regular physical activity is essential for good health and we provide opportunities for our children to develop positive attitudes both individually and as part of a group, through active living.
Every child receives 2 hours of PE per week. The children experience expressive movement, inventive movement and games skills. There are swimming lessons for P7 classes,
Children throughout the school are also encouraged to keep active during breaks, where we have a timetabled football pitch and trim trail.
Each child also has a skipping rope and is encouraged to use this regularly at breaks. There are also opportunities to be part of our school sports teams including football, netball and athletics.

On Monday 11th January 2016 a very big Cooking Bus to deliver Food and Nutrition to pupils, Community and staff, arrived in our playground. Since then Senior classes have washed hands, donned aprons,sliced,cut,scooped and learned loads of new cooking skills and food information as they each baked two “dishes” to take-away !!Tomorrow Wednesday and Thursday families and friends have signed up to climb aboard this “state of the art ” Cooking Facility. Perhaps you`ll be able to join us…Wednesday 1.30-3pm or Thursday 9.30-11am ? We`ve been given a box full of Kitchen and Cooking Utensils. If you have any suggestions about setting up an in-school Cooking Area please let the school know.Check out Hamilton Advertiser for more extensive coverage.
