At Ghyll Royd we recognise that boys need plenty of exercise. Our KS1 boys enjoy 3 hours of physical activity each week in line with the Healthy Schools Programme, while our KS2 boys enjoy 4 hours of activities. There is also the option to increase this even further through the extra curricular programme. Our all inclusive policy enables every boy, regardless of ability or age, to take part in and enjoy elements of the National Curriculum and all have the opportunity to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle through positive experiences. The PE curriculum at Ghyll Royd covers a range of sports and activities and include the traditional sports of rugby, football, athletics and cricket which are taught within the extensive playing fields of the school. The boys also enjoy professionally coached tennis lessons and swimming which take place at local sports clubs close the school. The school’s current multi purpose hall provides the facilities for additional extra curricular activities such as badminton, table tennis and circuit training and the grounds lend themselves to other activities which include cross country running, orienteering, athletics, and rounders. The PE curriculum is underpinned by inter house sporting competitions and annual events such as the Wharfedale Cup Football tournament, the Ghyll Royd Cross Country and the Ghyll Royd Rugby Sevens. Boys enjoy friendly competition with other schools in the area with regular fixtures taking place. |
