General Information

The sport programme at our school is administered through a policy which can be found on this site. It basically seeks to promote healthy life options through participation in a varied and well run sports programme. In Grade 1 and 2 the programme is designed around the establishment of basic skills and the development of co-ordination so that all the children can make informed choices regarding the different sport at the next level. We offer different sports in winter and summer, with it being compulsory for a child to participate in a team sport from Grade 3 onwards.

We pride ourselves on our ability to develop skills in our children so that although we are small, we are able to produce potent teams of players who have learnt how to function as a team and reach their potential in terms of sporting ability.

We also understand that not everyone is able to perform at the same level and so we also work at an appropriate level with less sporty or athletic children so that everyone can enjoy their sport time.
