At Scholes School, we take part in many different sporting activities throughout the year, both competitive and non-competitive.

We have had many successes over the years, including some very good results at The Neiley Races, Swimming Galas, Kwik Cricket and Mini Tennis Tournaments.

Well done to our year 3/4 Girl’s football team who did so incredibly well at last nights tournament. Having won the league they unfortunately lost in the final but I could not be prouder of all of them. You all had big smiles on your faces, encouraged one another and worked well as a team.
2 girls have already told me they want to join football teams out of school. Brilliant!
