At Prenton Prep all children have regular P.E. lessons as part of the curriculum with weekly
swimming lessons from Year 1. Junior classes use the excellent facilities at the Oval Sports centre and
the Wirral Tennis Centre.

AthleticsGymnasticsBadmintonRacket BallNetballRoundersFootball
As members of the Independent Schools Association the children have the opportunity to compete with
other ISA Schools both at regional and national level for swimming, athletics, football, and netball.
Each year we attend the ISA North football tournament and have been very successful, being crowned
as NORTH ENGLAND ISA FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS in both 2005 and 2006. As such we have been invited to the
National finals finishing THIRD IN THE NATIONAL ISA FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT on both occasions. A feat of
which we are extremely proud.
Swimming plays a large part in life at PPS. We have had several successful galas and our swimming
team recently WON THE BIRKENHEAD SCHOOLS' SWIMMING GALA for the second year in a row. As a
result, we qualified for the Wirral Schools' Swimming Gala 2007 competing against all the
other area winners. Having finished third in 2006 we approached the 2007 gala with high hopes.
We won medals in almost every race and eventually were very proud to emerge as winners of
the gala - becoming CHAMPIONS OF THE WHOLE WIRRAL PENINSULA, an area with over one hundred
primary schools. This is quite an accomplishment for a school of our size!
Our curriculum is further complemented and enriched by a range of out of school clubs which
allow the children an element of personal choice in their development programme.
