Sporting Events

Welcome to the sporting events page. On this page you will find our amazing school teams and what competitions and events they have participated in as well as whole school sporting events.

At Monkhouse Primary School, we thrive in giving all of our children excellent sporting opportunities by entering our school classes and teams into many sporting events.

Throughout the school year we participate in different sporting competitions for all ages, some of which include:

Year 1 Dance Festival
Year 3 Handball festival
Year 4 Skipping competition
Year 4 tag rugby festival
Year 5 Basketball tournament
Year 5 Trail and challenge
Year 5/6 Girls Football tournament
Year 5/6 Boys Football tournament

As a whole school, we take part in various sporting days and events throughout the year. This year we enjoyed:

Sport for Champions - Stephen Miller Visit
Daily Mile Launch

Completing in tournaments and sporting events helps the children to practise their skills and gain confidence along the way. Teamwork, resilience and determination are just a few of the many skills the children show through participating in such sporting events. Entering the children into sporting competitions/festivals helps children to understand the values and responsibility of representing our school and themselves to which the children at Monkhouse always do to a very high standard. By playing against other schools, the children understand and learn the importance of competition which allows them to thrive and perform to their best, reaching their full potential.

We have had many amazing results from our children this academic year thus far.

Year 3 came second during the handball festival they took part in, showing great skills, teamwork and sportsmanship. Year 4 won the Tag Rugby festival, they didn't even have to take part in the final match as it would have been two Monkhouse teams playing against one another! Additionally, Year 4 won the Skipping Festival demonstrating some extremely difficult skips!

As always, the staff, families and school community are extremely proud when the children take part in competitions.
