For some school PE lessons and sports-themed events were hated, but for many it was a welcome break from the classroom and a great chance to have fun.
It was certainly the latter for children in our latest gallery of sporting days at schools around town.
We’ve got a young football team from Werrington Primary School, netball players from Arthur Mellows Village College, Peterborough Lions, Peterborough School and Thomas Deacon Academy amongst others.
We also have plenty of pictures from the thriving junior football scene.
