⚽️GIRLS FOOTBALL⚽️ Well this was just INCREDIBLE! We have had football matches at breaktime and lunchtime today (for boys and girls) with lots of girls also getting involved! Then afterschool saw 49 girls from years 1-6 take part in a football training session. This was fantastic and everyone got involved with all of the activities with some great matches being played too! A huge thank you to Mrs Woodley, Mrs Knight, Miss Leonard and Myla for giving up their time to support in the running of the event! Finally, thank you to all of our spectators. It was wonderful to see so many supporters cheering the girls on. We even had support signs which was incredible! 😃 #LetGirlsPlay #HamblePrimary #girlsfootball

🚴🏽Year 4 - Bikeability Level 1 🚴🏿♂️ A huge thank you to all of the Year 4 parents for bringing the children’s bikes into school today so we could all take part in Bikeability. They did an amazing job despite the weather conditions. 🌧️ Everyone carried out safety checks on their bikes and the progress in a short space of time was incredible! Lots of certificates and badges given out today and children proud of themselves. This is what makes it all so worthwhile. Well done everyone!
Year 3/4 Handball Tournament. What an afternoon! The Year 3/4 Handball tournament went down a storm! So much so, I forgot to take any photos. I was just as into it as the kids! Thank you to the sports leaders for helping with the set up of the event and to all the staff that gave up their own time to support with refereeing the matches. Finally, it was great to see so many spectators cheering on the kids! Stay tuned for more sporting events...
🏑🏓🎾Year 5 Sports Leadership Outcome 🎾🏓🏑 Year 5 were also hard at work last half term with their sports. The children completed their Sports Leadership programme which involved learning some playground games for young children then planning, creating and resourcing a playground game of their own. The excitement when the children were actually going to share their creations with Year 1 was remarkable! The smiles from all the children were lovely to see and some very imaginative games. Our sports leaders will be announced over the next few weeks for the next academic year. I am very excited to be able to work alongside these children to continue to develop the enthusiasm for sport across the school.
🏋🏼Year 6 Fitness outcome🏋🏼♀️ We have introduced indoor fitness circuits as part of our PE teaching to encourage the children to think about a healthy lifestyle and some of the exercises that we can do to keep fit. Year 6 shared some of their favourite fitness excerises with Year 4 at the end of the half term. I definitely think we may have some personal trainers in the future of Hamble! It was great to see some of the PE learning around the school 😃
📣Year 2 and 3 Cricket Skills📣 What great fun we had this afternoon! It was a pleasure to take a group of Year 2s to Wildern Secondary School this afternoon to take part in a cricket skills festival. Lots of skills practised and a good time had by all!
🚴🏿♂️ Bikeability Level 2 day 2! 🚴🏼♀️ Well the weather was certainly a bit different today but well done to those that persevered and took part in the cycling today! Some more certificates and Level 2 badges given out today. Hope you all get warmed up now! 😃
🚴🏼♀️Bikeability Level 2🚴🏿♂️ It may be half term but it hasn’t stopped this lot! A huge thank you and well done to our first two Bikeability groups. They did lots of riding on the local roads around Hamble so you may have seen them out and about in their high vis jackets. BE SAFE, BE SEEN! Certificates all round, with a couple of children in our second group receiving FULL marks! Great job everyone and it’s lovely to see you all being so safe and aware. We had a great day with lots of information! Round two tomorrow...
🚴♀️BikeAbility Balance Final Day🚴 'What an incredible school and pupils you have here at Hamble! The children have been amazing all week and have been so determined.' Great feedback from instructor Glenn. The children all worked so hard and I am so pleased to hear lots of children wanting to try out pedal bikes following on from the BikeAbility balance sessions. Smiles all round as the children were given their certificates at the end! 😃 No crocodiles snapping up children's feet in Year R that's for sure! Please note: We are very much accepting any donations of old balance bikes if your child progresses onto a pedal bike. 😃
🚴♀️BikeAbility Balance🚴 The children in Year R have thoroughly enjoyed learning how to ride a balance bike/learn to pedal this week so far. The smiles and determination on their faces has been great to watch! The last two days have incorporated moving and gliding whilst keeping balance before moving onto gliding around a slalom. Last day tomorrow so please make sure that you all take bikes home if you have brought them in to school for use this week.
Year 5/6 Tag Rugby Tournament. What an amazing atmosphere this afternoon, on the school field, where we hosted our first ever tournament! What better to start with than Tag Rugby?! We were very privileged to host the event with 30 of our Year 5/6 children taking part, along with 30 children visiting from Botley Primary attending. The teamwork and dedication was great to see so thank you. Also, a huge thank you to Miss Leonard, Miss Walters and our student teachers for giving up their time to help with refereeing games 😃
🚴♀️BikeAbility Balance🚴♂️ Day 1 of BikeAbility Balance and the children were taught how to hold their bikes safely, get on and off their bikes, put on their helmets and check the air in their tyres, before having a go and moving around cones with their bikes. It caused great excitement today and it was great to see the smiles on all of their faces when I went out on to the playground this afternoon.
Year 2 Road Safety. Year 2 took part in a great webinar session today, learning all about the Green Cross Code as part of their PE and PDL sessions. Road safety is very important! Especially having the busy Hamble Lane right next to us! I have attached the PowerPoint and video link in case other parents wish to share this with their children too. Be safe when crossing the roads! https://www.think.gov.uk/resource/crossing-roads/ https://we.tl/t-ZTTBSITTmE
🏃🏽♀️Athletics news🏃 Another awesome afternoon on the sporting front! I took some great athletes to the Wyvern College, Eastleigh where the children competed in a range of Sportshall athletics! Some of the accuracy, aiming, throwing, jumping and sprinting was incredible to watch! Thank you to all the parents for being so accommodating as I know this event caused a few issues with children stepping in at the last minute due to absences etc. so my sincere thanks goes to all of you. We simply could not run these events without your support!
🏓EXCITING NEWS🏓 You may have seen a new appearance on the playground... We have got 2 new outdoor table tennis tables. How exciting! Over the next few weeks the children will be given the chance to have a go, before they become part of our break and lunchtime activity offerings. Even the staff are routing for a tournament!
⚽️ Girls Football News ⚽️ A huge well done to Hamble Primary Girls! Mrs Woodley and I felt so proud of the Girls Football Team today! We took two teams today and they all showed great determination.

⚽️🏑 SPORTS ROUNDUP 🏑⚽️ We have had LOADS of our pupils representing Hamble over the last couple of weeks which has been incredible! ⚽️ Miss Leonard and I had the pleasure of taking both a Year 3/4 and a Year 5/6 team of footballers to Botley Primary last Tuesday where all the children played incredibly. Thank you to all the parents who came along, joined us in the boggy mud and for all the washing that would have needed afterwards 😃. We all had lots of fun and both teams won nearly all of their games! Great job Hamble! ⚽️ Unfortunately, due to the weather, the Year 3/4 multi-sports did have to be postponed but we are looking to try and get another date put in for this to go ahead. 🏃🏽♀️🏃♂️ 🏑 This Tuesday it was Year 5s turn to attend a hockey tournament against. They played 5 games across our league and the cooperation seen was amazing. The children all took it in turns to play and 2 of our children even had the courage to play for another team who unfortunately didn’t have enough players. 🏑 😃 What incredible children we have at Hamble! 😃 ⚽️ Next up... we have the girls football tournament next week, where we are taking 2 teams of children that have been practising well in their training sessions. ⚽️ I love watching the children enjoy themselves and seeing their confidence grow!
🏑⚽️🎾🥏🎯Active Lunchtimes 🎯🏐🥏🎾⚽️🏑 This week it has been great to see all of the children enjoying their lunchtimes. They have had access to skipping ropes, hoops, parachutes, hockey sticks and balls and lots more and all the large scale loose parts. The excitement around this has been amazing and the children have loved practising some of their sporting skills and learning new ones. It has been great to see EVERYONE active and enjoying themselves outside.
Year 6 Swimming. I was very lucky to be able to take Miss Leonard’s place at swimming yesterday, with the Year 6s, where the children learnt all about the flags they may see near open water. We also taught them how to be safe around water and that even if someone they love is in trouble it is important they don’t jump in to try and help but alert the lifeguard. Some great self rescue work went on throughout the session! 📣Parents of children not in Year 6 📣 Please share this information with your children if you are taking part in water sports or visiting open water. We are very lucky to be so close to the water in Hamble! https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/47797851.amp 🛟 Water safety is very important 🛟
Year 3/4 Football Tournament. It was an absolute pleasure to take these children to the 3/4 football tournament yesterday with a few extras unable to be photographed. They all worked so hard together and showed some incredible maturity. Safe to say, I am very proud to take Hamble children to all of the sporting events as they really do show how amazing they are. Also, a very big thank you to those parents that supported with transporting children there and back to facilitate everyone to attend. It’s always a struggle but you all come together to make it work. Thank you for your ongoing support. 😃
KS2 Table Tennis. We certainly have some hidden talent in Hamble for Table Tennis! Some of the children in attendance had never played before and by the end were thoroughly enjoying themselves, talking about how they were going to teach their friends when we return to school. What community spirit we have within our Hamble children! Lots of games won and some VERY close!
Year 3/4 Skipping Festival. What superstars we have at Hamble! Thank you to all of these children who represented the school incredibly this afternoon. Everyone had a go at all of the skipping activities and it was great to see everyone having the courage to give something a go even if they haven’t done it before. Safe to say there will be a lot of children teaching their peers skipping on the playground over the next few weeks...
Hampshire School Games 2022-2023. We are proud to announce that as a school we achieved the gold school games award for the academic year 22/23, with great thanks to Mr Li who dedicated a huge amount of time and effort to facilitating and attending the sports opportunities we were offered last year. Let’s continue with this and I hope to be adding another badge to this at the end of the year 😃
Year 5/6 Cross Country Running. Another tremendous sporting day for Hamble! Miss Leonard and I were lucky enough to take 21 children to Swanmore College to take part in the Year 5/6 cross country event. We even had some helpful siblings that stepped up due to a few absences. It’s great to see the enthusiam from all the children involved! Every single pupil involved tried their very best and completed the course with one of our pupils even gaining 3rd place in their race. She has therefore qualified to take part in the County finals during the Spring term. Well done all!
Year 3 Cross Country Running. What determination our Year 3s showed at the Cross Country running today! They all completed the course which was a LONG run! Well done Hamble. Another great sports event.

Year 3/4 Tri Golf
14/03/23: The year 3 and 4 children had a fantastic time at the Tri Golf event. Although for most of them this was a new sport, they all displayed an excellent attitude and encouraged each other as a team. They were overjoyed with coming in 1st place!

Year 4/5 Table Tennis
04/12/22: The year 4 and 5 children had an enjoyable time participating in a table tennis competition. Although this was the first time playing for many of them, it was a valuable experience providing them with the opportunity to learn a new sport. We look forward to more racket events next year.
Year 3/4 Dodgeball
27/09/22: The year 3 and 4 children represented the school excellently at a dodgeball competition. They showed great energy, determination and communicated well as a team.

School Games Awards 2019/20
We have been awarded the above in recognition of being 'on track' to maintain the Gold School Games Award during the autumn and spring terms, prior to the general school closures due to COVID-19. We were awarded the Virtual Award for commitment to Physical Education through the wider school closures, including a virtual sports day, in the summer term of 2020.
School Games Award 2018/19
Our 'Healthy Choices' walking/running track
We were delighted that the MP Mims Davis, the current Minister for Sport, was able to officially open our Healthy Choices Track. She talked to the children in our School Council about the importance of aiming for at least an hour a day of physical exercise, and how the track could be used to support this goal.
The track has been paid for using the allocated Sports Premium money for 2018/19. We are planning to make use of the allocation for 19/20 to add some outdoor gym equipment for the children to use.
The track has been called the Healthy Choices Track to fit in with our school aim of Informed Health. We want to encourage the children to want to exercise, and to see exercise as part of their healthy life choices.
