Poynter Primary school

[Budgie]

Hi everyone

We are due to move over on 23 rd January and have just signed a lease for a house in Duncaraig. The catchment school is Poynter which looks nice but was wondering about their sporting provision there,   My boys are v sporty so would love a school which has a lot of sport going on especially soccer!! And I think this would help them settle in quickly. I’d love any info on the school that anyone could provide thank! X

We also live in Duncraig, it is a lovely suburb! Our daughter goes to Davallia which is a fantastic school but I have also heard really good reports on Poynter (unfortunately I don't know anything about their sporting provisions!) there will always be the option to do after school soccer etc.. Good luck with the move!

Hi, my kids don’t go to Poynter but my friends kids do, she says it’s a really great school. They will do sports a couple times a week following the curriculum but then there may be after school teams that they could join. They will do 2 weeks of swimming lessons a year and the local schools all organise inter school sports competitions in year 6 for 1 term and there are I think 4 sports they can choose from, soccer being 1 of them.
If they are in to soccer they could join a soccer team, you will arrive in time to join a club before the season starts, Hamersley FC train at Carine Open Space which is close by and is a lovely little club, my son played for them for a season when we first arrived.
Good luck with the move [emoji2]
