Games

We have mixed PE/Games lessons at Barnes Hockey Pitch, Dan Mason Drive, Chiswick W4 2SH the whole year round, with girls and boys participating in all sports.

Swimming

Swimming lessons take place at Richmond’s Pools on the Park on Friday mornings. It’s an important part of the curriculum and a compulsory lesson. A note must be sent to the class teacher if your child is unable to swim for medical reasons. All boys and girls must wear school swimming caps. For details of where to buy swimwear, click here.

See here for swimming lesson times. A coach will take Orange – Ultra Violet children to and Red – Ultra Violet children from their lessons. Red Class start swimming lessons in the Summer term and parents are asked to take their children directly to the pool, so they can help them change. Other parents are not required at swimming lessons, apart from the parents on the Orange/Yellow Class rota. Parents are asked to sit on the balcony, preferably out of view, so as not to distract the children. Children should not be given food to eat at the pool; drinks and a snack are provided on their return to school.

The Unicorn Swimming Gala takes place one afternoon in the summer term. All children from Green Class upwards are expected to attend. A separate Demonstration Gala is held in the summer term for Red, Orange and Yellow Classes during one of the Friday morning sessions.

Sports day

Our sports day takes place towards the end of the summer term and parents are encouraged to attend; Yellow – UV at London Welsh Grounds and Red and Orange here at school.
