Sport at Sand Hutton CE School

Sport is an integral part of life here at Sand Hutton School. Children participate in two hours of quality PE a week delivered by experienced teaching staff and qualified coaches. We also participate in festivals and competitions within the York School Sports Partnership, The Howardian Small Schools Alliance, York City Knights Tag Rugby Festivals and other inter and intra school events.  These have included football, cross country, swimming, volleyball, athletics and multi sports. After school sports clubs are well attended and also include children from our partner school Warthill.

Hockey Club

Hockey is coached by  City of York Hockey Club coaches Nick Fitton and Sarah Harper on Thursdays after school at Sandburn Hall Sportshall (we  have this facility at no cost).  This is a very popular club and the children develop skilful play very quickly.
