Playing field for local residents
At weekends and during the summer holidays the playing field is open to everyone, free of charge and without booking. Please follow a few rules:
- wear sports shoes;
- children and young people have priority;
- no animals and no vehicles;
- bring only water onto the field;
- we take our rubbish with us.
The grounds are covered by CCTV. We close the playing field during repairs, in bad weather or after repeated breaches of the rules, and post a notice by the entrance.
Safety
Students use the facilities only under a teacher's supervision. Equipment from the store is issued by the teacher.
The equipment is inspected every year before September. Report any damage to the teacher straight away – reporting does not lead to punishment.
There are first aid kits in the gym and by the playing field. PE teachers have up-to-date first aid training.
PE kit
For a lesson you need a T-shirt, shorts or tracksuit bottoms and clean sports shoes to change into, worn only in the gym. Outdoor shoes damage the floor, so we don't wear them in the gym.
Questions about sports facilities
Do we need to book the playing field at the weekend?
No. The playing field is open at weekends and during the summer holidays from 9:00 to 20:00 to anyone who follows the rules.
How do I get my child exempted from PE?
The parent submits an application at the school office together with a doctor's opinion. The application form is in the list of applications and forms.
Can a sports club rent the gym?
Yes, outside school hours. The rental terms are set by the governing body, the details are in the agreement with the head teacher, and the school office accepts applications.
