Primrose Hill pupils participate in Active School Week every year.

Our 2024 Active School Week took place from 27th May to 31st May. The week started off with the very popular Table Tennis Takeover Day - in high demand after last year's fun.

On the Tuesday the junior classes had fun an outdoor Treasure Hunt, while the senior classes tried their hand at Throlf (Throwing Golf!), counting their throws of some (bouncy) balls on the way from the "tee" to 9 different hoops, and marking their scores along the way. 

Wednesday was our sponsored Marathon relay day where the school collectively ran over 40,000 metres in lap relays around the yard, raising money for the school.

Thursday was competitions day. The whole school participated in skipping and hula hoop competitions - we think some of the children could hula forever! Later, 6th class teams went up against the teachers in a basketball shoot-out - another perpetually popular event! 

Friday was Dance Takeover Day! We started out with some "Wake Up, Shake Up" sessions, had some "Drop Everything and Dance" moments when the bell rang, and, had a combined disco and céilí in the yard for the whole school! 

Our 2023 Active Week, taking place from from 29th May to 2nd June, has been great fun so far. On Monday we had Orienteering Games, and on Tuesday Table Tennis took over the school. Wednesday is Hula Hoop and Skipping Competitions Day. On Thursday welcomed Mark and Shane from Klaaskickz who gave the students a chance to learn and improve some soccer skills, and later on that day, the students took on the teachers in a Basketball Shootout!  Finally, on Friday the whole school will come together for a Céili (in the yard, weather permitting).

While whole-school activities were curtailed the last two years, this year we are thrilled to get back to a full programme of activities and fun that the whole school can participate in together.

For the last two years, 2021 and 2022, each class held their own sports day during active week, while in 2020 pupils and parents were encouraged to participate in Active Home Week.
