We are delighted to announce that we, Bowerham Primary and Nursery School, have achieved the School Games PLATINUM Mark Award for the 2022/23 & 2023/24 academic years.

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

Our most recent sporting achievements include:
Girls Football Easter Field Champions

Placing second in numerous events including; Netball league, Girls Futsal league, dodgeball, athletics league, cricket, tag rugby.
Taking more than 50 children to the SSN Sports Festival 23/24 receiving medals in dodgeball, tag rugby, girls football and Y3/4 athletics.

We are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.

As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.

A special thanks to:
Miss Lloyd who leads PE within school as well as all of our staff who are so willing to help run clubs and take our children to events. Not forgetting our parents helping out and supporting with transport.

We look forward to applying once again in 2024!
