P.E
Physical Education
At Chopwell Primary School, we recognise the role that P.E has to play and promoting a long-term healthy lifestyle which is both enjoyable and fulfilling. We aim to provide a high quality physical education curriculum that inspires all of our pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport at other physically demanding activities. Through our physical education culture we will enhance academic achievement, as well as the health and well-being of our pupils and by doing so, directly impact improved progress in reading, writing and Maths. As Vince Lombardi says "Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing!" we promote and encourage our children to have a healthy and competitive sportsmanship in daily lessons as well as sports.

LKS2 Sports Day!
The children had a great time at our Sporting Festival with Mrs Chapple. The Y6s were trained to be the sporting leaders and demonstrated an A-Z of fitness activities for the children to try. There were a lot of red, sweaty faces at the end of the sessions!
The children took part in an orienteering afternoon. They had to use their map and good communication skills to find the markers and beat the timer! They had great fun!
Journey Around the World
Chopwell Primary needs your help! We are going on a journey around the world! We want to see how many miles of exercise you can complete weekly. Below you will find all of the information you need to complete this challenge. We will be in competition with other schools and you may find some challenges along the way.
Journey around the world information sheet
Every week we would like you to follow the link below and record how many miles you have completed. All you need to do is click our school and click how many miles (to the nearest mile). Remember to use the conversion sheet from the document above to work out how many miles. Good luck!

A huge well done to our basket ball team for finishing third place in their section! They all played to their very best ability and we couldn't be any prouder.
The children in Y1 had a brilliant time at the multiskills festival at Thorp Academy. They really enjoyed all of the activities.
What an afternoon Y4 have had! 3 Newcastle Falcon players visited and gave them a training session in tag rugby. The children learned and practised lots of skills- a great time was had by all!
Y3 really enjoyed practising their ball skills in PE. They have been dribbling and shooting.
All of the children here in school had a great time on Gymnastics Day! They all learnt how to put together a routine using different balances and travelling styles.
Year 5 Cycling
We make sure our P.E curriculum is tailored to the needs of the children here. Living in Chopwell, it's vital the children can use the amazing cycling facilities around us - our year 5 children spend 7 days across the year out cycling both in the local area and exploring the surrounding countryside. Using their increased stamina and new found skills, this culminates in a longer cycle, the children get a huge sense of achievement from this and learn skills and qualities, like resilience, that are transferable back in school (they also have an absolutely fantastic time).
Year 5 cycle rides 2019
Well done to our amazing cross country team for their enthusiasm in our competition yesterday! They all put in so much effort! Some of us even finished the day with a 2nd place medal!
10 of our Y6 pupils visited Thorp Academy and took part in a Sports Leaders course. The children found out about different games they could play with the children on the yard at play times and how to organise and set up their own games and competitions.
The children had a great time watching The Tour of Britain race through the streets of Chopwell!

CHOPWELL PRIMARY RUGBY 2ND IN GATESHEAD!
Chopwell Primary U11 mixed girls' and boys' rugby team showed determination and resilience to battle through a very tough competition to the Gateshead Tag Rugby Final. They narrowly lost in the final and continued to make us proud in how they accepted defeat nobly. The remained undefeated in every match they played all the way through to the final.
Chopwell Primary and the local community recognise the significance of this achievement and could not be more proud of the children!
Chopwell Primary School are extremely pleased to announce that our Y5/6 mixed boys' and girls' rugby team WON the Cluster Title with a whitewash of clear victories. Over the last month our children have volunteered their lunch times as well as giving 100% to their PE lessons to develop their tag rugby skills. Not only were they technically fantastic on the day of the cluster championship, their sportsmanship and humility shone through. All staff and members of the local community were extremely proud of their achievement.

The children amazed the crowds at Sage Gateshead with their amazing dance performance from 'Annie' the musical. Well done to all of the children who have taken part and represented our school. Yet again, the children's behaviour was outstanding and there was a great turn out of parents who supported the event which is greatly appreciated from both the staff and the children. A huge thank-you to Miss Tingate for choreographing the dance performance and organising the event- wonder what next year's performance will be?
Olympic Athlete Day
The children thoroughly enjoyed having the opportunity to work alongside the British Olympic athlete 'Peter Bakare' taking part in a range of fitness circuits. Not only was this a fabulous opportunity for the children, showing them the outstanding qualities of sportsmanship, it was also amazing to find out how far we can push ourselves towards achieving a goal. We would like to thank you all for sponsoring the event. The sponsorship money raised by your kind donations will be put towards sporting equipment for our school, as well as contributing towards the sports for schools charity.
