SPORTS PAGE
We love sport, keeping healthy and having fun at Chartham Primary and our long-held ethos is to give sporting opportunities and experiences to all our children.
In 2016 we were awarded the Canterbury Schools Fair Play Trophy.
Of all our sporting achievements, we are most proud of this one!
RECENT NEWS:
Hockey Tournament
A fantastic, fun day of hockey. We were very proud of all our hockey players, who not only showed excellent teamwork and individual skills, but also lots of perseverance and respect throughout the tournament. Well done to our Year 3&4 team, who were runners-up!!
A big thank you to Mr Goodenough, for all his amazing coaching 😊
Infant Agility

Well done to all the boys and girls who took part.

Thank you to Mr Goodenough, Mrs Benson and Mrs Waters for giving up their time to help make this trip possible.
Football
What a game! Some of the football team played a wonderful game against Canterbury Primary recently. It was such an evenly matched game. Canterbury Primary ended up the winners and the final score was 2-1. Well done to both teams.

THE CHARTHAM
'Golden Mile'
The children are very excited about the new yellow 'footprints' which will soon be appearing around the playground!
These footprints will map the route the children can run. Each class will try to run/jog/walk perhaps 2 or 3 laps of the course each day...by the end of the week, every child hopefully has run a full mile! (approximately 11 laps)
(Hopefully the teachers will be bringing in their plimsolls too!)
Thank you Mrs Reid for creating such an amazing Golden Mile display in the hall!
