SPORT
Sport is a very
important aspect of the curriculum at The Forest School. Sport is an area
where the pupils are able to excel. It builds their confidence, encourages
team work and sharing and it gives the pupils the opportunity to try
activities that they may continue to do in their leisure time outside
school. Sport activities provided include swimming and diving, football,
riding, orienteering, climbing, abseiling, bowling, volleyball, badminton,
netball, rounders, cricket, athletics, gymnastics
and dance. We use the indoor and outdoor facilities at school, sports
centres, community facilities and other schools.
Pupils also have the
opportunity to experience outdoor and adventurous activities in the local
countryside.
Residential
visits are an important part of school life. In recent years pupils have
been to France, Northumbria, Cumbria,
Scarborough and the North Yorkshire
Centres. The school has two minibuses and a people carrier, which are used
for off site activities and residential visits.
