Physical Education and School Sport (PESS)
Being Active at Totternhoe!
At Totternhoe, Physical Education (PE), Physical Activity and School Sport play an integral part in the school’s curriculum, as we want all children to be physically active, confident and literate in a way that promotes and supports a healthy lifestyle. As children work their way through our school, they are also exposed to a variety of roles taken within each sport that we cover. They begin to think more critically of performance and carefully consider tactics to support their overall performance.
Our PE curriculum is centred around ensuring children are exposed and aware of how to achieve a healthy lifestyle. A strong supporter of the Leighton Linslade Schools Sports Partnership (LLSSP), the school benefits from in-school coaching sessions plus participation in numerous inter-school events, blending individual skill development with team ethos and enabling the children to showcase and further utilise learnt skills.
School Games
The six School Games values - Teamwork, Self-Belief, Respect, Passion, Honesty and Determination - were developed by young people to recognise how the experience of sport should be incorporated and embodied within schools, and to reflect the 'spirit' of the School Games. At Totternhoe C E Academy, we encourage all participants, members of staff, parents/carers and spectators to adopt and demonstrate the 'Spirit of the Games' at events. We use these values in our PE lessons too.
Achieving the School Games Gold Award for the first time in June 2015, is recognition of the important role sport plays in a child’s development at Totternhoe and will act as an inspiration to pupils in future years. We were awarded GOLD in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Then from 2019 onwards we have received PLATINUM which we are all very proud of!
Well done to all the children who put in the extra hours during training and to the staff that give up their time to take children to fixtures . A big thank you to the parents also who pick up after the many tournaments and events that we take part in.
Take a look at our PESS gallery to see pictures from the events that we have attended and held.

The Future Games Holiday Camps
We run an Ofsted registered holiday camp during each school holiday at Cedars Upper School. Our camp is a great way for children to have FUN, be ACTIVE, and make new friends in a SAFE environment. We have a great team of coaches and the primary goal for us is that PARENTS feel CONFIDENT leaving their children in OUR CARE and that CHILDREN go home HAPPY with a lasting memory of their Future Game experience.
We believe our camps are the best around and that your children will get the highest standard of CARE and COACHING on offer!
