Physical Education
At Scawsby Junior Academy, we offer a high-quality Physical Education curriculum, which inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in a variety of different sports. We aim to provide opportunities for pupils to become more physically active and understand the importance of their own health and fitness. Our curriculum creates many opportunities to embed important values such as fairness, respect and working as a team.

On the last day of the spring half term, the whole school took part in our annual cross country trial. Children ran around the perimeter of the school field three times, equating to around a mile. Year 3 and 4 girls and boys ran first, followed by Year 5 and 6 girls and boys. All children showed excellent determination and resolve to run the trial as quickly as they could. The top four from each race now have the opportunity to represent Scvawsby Junior Acadey at the Doncaster Cross Country Championships at Hill House School on Saturday 11th March. Congratulations to the sixteen children who made it through!
Doncaster Rovers Player Visit
The children in Year 5 thoroughly enjoyed their PE session with the 3 Doncaster Rovers players on Tuesday, and got to spend time asking some questions. Year 6 had a fabulous time with Tommy Rowe and got to find out about the life of a footballer and asked lots of interesting questions. Huge thank you to Doncaster Rovers Football Club for allowing the players to visit our school and spend time with our children, it was really inspirational and we look forward to more visits for the whole school.
6th of June 2024 – The Stoneacre Cup
our fantastic Y4 & 5 mixed football team competed in the annual Stoneacre Cup at the Eco Power Stadium. The team made a fantastic start to the tournament, scoring some incredible goals and finished the group with four wins, two draws and only one loss. After finishing 2nd in the league table, we played in a very tense semi-final in front of a large crowd. The performance in this match was exceptional with the team coming out victorious, winning 5-0! We continued our excellent form into the final but couldn’t seem to find a breakthrough. Sadly, we conceded a goal on the break and lost the final 1-0.
The team played with pride, determination, sportsmanship and plenty of skill throughout the whole day under the baking sun. The event was superb, and the children were delighted to have the opportunity to play on the Doncaster Rovers pitch. The referees and match officials all commented on how our team played superb football and had some extremely talented players. Congratulations to the whole team for representing our school in such a brilliant way.
12th of June 2024 - Sports Day
Thank you to everyone who attended our annual Sports Day event. The atmosphere was electric with hundreds of spectators cheering on our talented children during the 76 races!
Y6's performance of the Haka as well as the lighting of the Sports Day flame was a fantastic way to open the event.
A huge thank you goes to the PTA and all of the other volunteers throughout the event. Once again, the mums, dads and toddler races were extremely competitive! Thank you for volunteering to take part in them.
Congratulations to all of our children for showing sportsmanship and determination throughout and to 611 for finally winning Mr Thomas his first Sports Day!
We have many gifted sports stars at Scawsby Junior Academy and we are proud to showcase their talents in such a great event.
Finishing second means the team won prize money for the school but there is still chance to win more! The social media campaign will continue. Please share, comment on and like this post! The more shares, tags, likes and comments we get means more prize money for school.
1st July 2024 - Athletics Competition
Our year 5 and 6 pupils were invited to the ECO Stadium at Doncaster Rovers to compete in an athletics tournament with other schools in the trust. The competition consisted of a variety of events: 800m, 400m, 200m, 100m, relay, tennis ball throw, speed bounce and our personal favourite, the tug of war!
The children were INCREDIBLE and all children placed in the top 3 for their event. At the end of the tournament, the points were added up from all the events and Scawsby Junior Academy were crowned the competition winners!
An amazing afternoon of competing and another successful competition for Scawsby Junior Academy.
