Our Vision
We want Virginia Primary School to be a community of happy, confident, motivated lifelong learners. We want our children to be successful citizens who value themselves and each other. Therefore, we are continually striving to ensure that we nurture, challenge and enable each and every one to be the very best they can be in all areas of school life.

Rationale
We strongly believe that engagement in a range of physical activities will lead us to realise our vision for the children at Virginia Primary School. We believe that physical activity is essential to a childs’ well-being and through our provision we aim to:

• Foster a love for and enjoyment of being active.
• Develop ‘fitness for life’ through promoting the health benefits of regular exercise.
• Identify talents.
• Develop self-esteem, confidence and social skills.
• Contribute to the physical development of each child.
• Give children a way of expressing themselves and an opportunity to be creative.
• Develop a range of skills that can be applied in other contexts.
• Give children the opportunity to try out activities that they would not otherwise have access to.
