At Castleside Primary School we are extremely proud to be able to take part in a wide range of sports during the academic year. The children have the opportunity to participate in netball, tag rugby, football, cricket, multi-skills, basketball, cheerleading, martial arts, swimming and dance (to name a few!).
In addition to this, thanks to our Lottery Funded all-weather track, we are able to get the children out walking and running every day. We are committed to promoting the benefits of sport and exercise to our children, particularly for good physical and mental health.
In September, we made the pledge to be an Active School as a response to the government’s childhood obesity plan. The guidelines of the plan detail the responsibility of schools to ensure 30 active minutes each day for every child in school. Currently, we are working towards our Active 10 award.
