SPORTS AND P.E.
Fellside children love their sport and their PE!
We have a strong tradition for excelling in many sports and, thanks to our involvement with the Gateshead School Sports Partnership, we have many opportunities to participate in a wide range of competitions, festivals and cluster events in an equally wide ranging number of sports including football, basketball, rugby, tennis, hockey, athletics and dance.
In this section of the website, we aim to share news of our sporting developments, successes in competitions and curriculum developments in PE.
