Physical education is a huge part of life at Sacred Heart. We offer a wide range of sports through our diverse curriculum and children attend many events throughout the year with the HWSSP.

We are also very pleased to have we have been awarded the "Gold" school games mark for PE and Sport 2023-2024.

I look forward to seeing your children gain knowledge and understanding of different sports and activities and take part in events.

Girls district football tournament

Yesterday, the girls played a fantastic series of matches in the district football tournament, showing tremendous effort and teamwork throughout. The girls finished strong, securing joint 5th place out of 15. It was a hot afternoon but the team played a total of 8 matches, winning 3, drawing 3 and losing 2.

Lucy was outstanding in goal, making lots of saves that kept the team in the game during key moments. Evie, Hope and Mia were solid in defence, consistently making important tackles and clearances. Evie and Mia also managed to score 2 goals each. Sofia, Ruby, and Connie were reliable in midfield. Sofia was especially impressive, gliding past defenders with ease, while Connie held the ball up brilliantly and frequently tested the goalkeeper with her shots. Eva and Holly did a fantastic job up front, constantly pressing the other team, causing them to make errors.

Our player of the tournament goes to Holly, she worked so hard and got better and better throughout the afternoon, proving herself to be a really strong attacker. Well done to Holly and the entire team- we are very proud of you!!
