Foxes Sports Competitions

We are part of a small collaborative of local schools called the Foxes group, which provides support across all areas of the curriculum. As part of this group we have organised sporting events to take place across the year and are available to all children from Year 1 to Year 6.

These includes competitions like multi-sports, football, boccia, tag-rugby, athletics and cross-country. These events are inclusive to all children and abilities and provide the children with the opportunity to use the skills they have discovered in their PE lessons in a competitive way.

Each event earns points towards the school where awards can be earned and celebrated in school. Please find a few photos of the teams and events calendar below.


Children in Year 5 and 6 also have the opportunity to participate in a local football league at the Wreake Valley Academy in Syston throughout the year against other local primary schools. Please look out on Weduc for an updated league table to see how team Burton are getting on.Â
