Sports Headlines
As part of the Olympic Legacy scheme each primary school has been allotted a sum of money, by the government, to use to strengthen the sports provision in their school. At St Thomas’ for 2023/2024 we were allocated £18,090.
Last year St Thomas ' attended numerous Medway Mini-Youth Games competitions and finished an admirable 11th out of the 66 schools that took part. We also introduced the children to intra-competitions where different year groups and all genders competed against one another. it would be fair to say that most if not all the children in Key Stage Two participated in at least one inter or intra competition.
83% of Year 6 children left school as competent swimmers.
Our funding also helps to purchase resources and storage for equipment.
