The Norfolk School Games is the largest school sport event to ever be held in Norfolk. Since 2012 the annual event has provided opportunities for our pupils across the county to compete in many different sports at different levels.

The Games are part of the national School Games initiative which aims to inspire more young people to take part in competitive school sport.
