As a school we are part of the Gipping Valley and Thurston School Sport Partnership (GVTSSP). Every year through the GVTSSP we at Abbot’s Hall take part in individual and team competitions and tournaments against local primary schools in the partnership.

During the academic year 2020/2021, the format for the above events changed due to COVID-19 restrictions and health and safety. Virtual events were introduced and as a school we took part in many virtual events with great success.

Just like the last academic year,  this year we will be taking part in both virtual events and face to face events again. We aim to provide our pupils with a range of opportunities that create positive experiences for all young people to take part in sport and physical activity. For the face to face events there are now three different types of competition - Belong, Develop and Compete. 

Virtual competitions will take place within school during the school day. At Abbot’s Hall we plan to take full advantage of these virtual competitions and encourage as many pupils as possible to take part, be active and enjoy the competitions on offer.
