St. Paul's Sport 2023-2024
Welcome to the home of everything sport related here at St. Paul's!
Please take your time to look at all our school successes!
Our school are taking part in Path to Paris to help us become more physically active whilst learning more about the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris this year. Each class are competing against one another to be the first to reach Paris!
Our children have been working hard to be as physically active as they can be, taking part in the 'daily mile' and regular brain breaks whilst learning more about the different countries they reach along the way on their Path to Paris.
Along the way, we have also learnt more about the Olympic and Paralympic Games, what they are and who can take part in them. We are also aware of the Olympic and Paralympic values and the importance of them.
