Central to the successful bid to host the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games in London were the government’s wide-ranging legacy commitments. These included the aim of re-energising school sport, with a focus on competition and creating a sporting habit for life in young people. Schools with primary-age pupils receive an additional ‘PE and sport premium’, which must be spent on making additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport, for the benefit of all pupils to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles. Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer. Examples of how this funding may be used include:
At Alverstoke Junior School we understand the importance of all pupils partaking in high quality PE lessons and extra-curricular sports. Our allocated sports premium money helps us to do this. As a school we receive £8000 plus £5 for each pupil on role each year. Please click on the link below for details on how our PE and sports premium is being spent for the 2016/17 academic year:

On Monday 18th July, we took part in an event with over 2000 children and adults to celebrate the Rio Olympics by dancing the traditional dance of Brazil.
9 schools in Gosport took part in this event, congregating at 4 different locations in the area.
We were joined by Alverstoke Infant School, who congregated on our field to be entertained by our brilliant musicians who performed some fantastic samba drumming to greet all of the dancers as they arrived.
At precisely 10am we all began our samba dance.
We have submitted our evidence to the Guinness Book of Records and will hear shortly if we have been successful in achieving the record for the largest simultaneous samba dance.

On Sunday 26th June, 30 children from Alverstoke Infant and Junior School took part in the British Red Cross Make Your Move dance competition at Eastleigh.
We chose to tell the story of the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami that devastated the lives of thousands of people, including the people of India. The dance began on the streets of India, showing a joyful scene of dancers celebrating in front of an Indian temple scene. Quickly a monumental earthquake ripped through the streets of India and devastated the community, causing an almighty tsunami to cause havoc, sweeping up the Indian children in its path. Next entered the British Red Cross team who came to help the Indians regenerate their community.
We were extremely proud of our dance team who were fantastic ambassadors for Alverstoke Junior School, awarded best performance on the night. We also raised a significant amount of money for the Red Cross which we are very proud of.
