See if you or your kid is amongst these pictures of Chesterfield schoolchildren playing sport - including kids from Spire Junior School, St Mary's, Tupton Hall and Hasland Hall School

Playing sport at school can often lay the foundations for a long leisure sporting career in adult life.

For some PE lessons 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.

And if you like this gallery, then check out these grassroots sporting pictures from around Chesterfield, here or these Chesterfield Half Marathon picture from the adults here or the children fun runners here.
