We are delighted to announce that we, Wellington Primary School, have achieved the School Games Silver Mark Award for the 2017/18 academic year.
The School Games Mark is a Government led award scheme launched in

-Infant and Junior Sports days
-Extra-curricular sports clubs
-Whole school engagement with daily mile

With a total of young people competing in local inter-school competitions this year, we are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.
As part of our application, we were asked to fulfill criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.
A special thanks to:
-The pupils, staff, parents and volunteers who assisted in delivering high quality physical
education this year

We look forward to applying once again in 2019!
