The school has received extra government funding this year for PE and sport. We will be investing a substantial portion of this into the Abbey Sports Foundation (ASF) – their pictures appear later in the newsletter. The ASF work every Friday afternoon on a programme which develops their coaching skills – they also have weekly fitness sessions on a Monday afternoon. From the second half of the autumn term the ASF students will be coaching children from F2 to Year 6 at lunchtimes and during PE lessons. The aim of the project is to maximise the impact of the funding in developing health, fitness and sporting skills amongst all the pupils at Abbey Primary.
