Ronald Ross Primary School Football Team Division 2 CHAMPIONS

Our superb team played the entire season without being beaten. The Championship was undecided right up to the last game of the season.
Our Physical Education Programe aims to:
Enhance Physical, Social and intellectual development
Encourage children to appreciate the effort and performance of others

All children will swim during the school year in Key Stage 2. The children will usually have their swimming lesson in an 8 week block and we aim for all our children to swim at least 25 metres before they leave us in year 6. Children currently swim at the putney leisure centre where lessons are led by Wandsworth Swimming Instructors. Children are able to earn certificates and badges for both distance and water skills.
We are by law required to take enough swimming observers for a ratio of 1-10 adults/ children. Please let us know if your are ever able to help by going to the swimming baths as an observer with the children.
