Please note the following;

 

On a day that your son or daughter has PE, he or she will come to school already dressed in the GHS sports kit.  This will include;

 

GIRLS – Polo shirt, black leggings or tracksuit bottoms, school hoodie (optional) and blazer, school sports socks and trainers.

BOYS – Red GHS football top or white t-shirt, black tracksuit bottoms (school shorts may be worn underneath), school hoodie (optional) and blazer, school sports socks and trainers.

 

All of the GHS sports gear can be purchased from The Jeanery in Glengormley, except for black tracksuit bottoms.

 

All classes will take place outside.  In the event of bad weather students will follow a health related programme in their bubble classrooms.  If your son or daughter is not able to take part in PE on a particular day due to illness or injury, please send a short note outlining the reason.

 

We will of course update you if there are any further changes and if you have any queries regarding PE & Sport in school, don’t hesitate to contact one of our PE teachers.

Our aim is to be fully Transformed by September 2022. In order to achieve this and have our development proposal approved, we need your help!
