Holly Hill Primary and Nursery School
Sport at Holly Hill
Welcome to our sports page!
Here at Holly Hill we like to do as many sport competitions in and out of school as possible so here is a page to celebrate what has been going on.
If your child has competed for an outside club at all and you would like your child to be on this page to celebrate their achievement then please see Mrs Fisher, we would love to hear all about it!

KS1 and EYFS had a fantastic opportunity to experience a trampolining workshop. Each class spent time on the trampolines learning about the safety aspects we have to follow, and having a go at different ways of bouncing on the trampolines, also seeing what ‘tricks’ they could do.
