PE and Sports and Orchards Infants
PE and Sport is a real passion at Orchards Infant School and we are proud to be part of the West Sussex Sports Association (WSSA). We aim to participate and compete in as many festivals and competitions as possible throughout the year.
Our pupils also show great commitment in PE and extra-curricular events and we are proud to share photos and information about these events on this page.
