We aim to provide students with a comprehensive and balanced program of sporting activities. In doing so, we foster and develop students’ character, social relationships and sportsmanship, embodying our Christian ethos.
Our sports program gives students the opportunity to acquire and develop a range of skills, physical abilities and attitudes that help develop a sense of team and school spirit. This is a solid foundation for a life-long, active lifestyle. Opportunities exist for students to develop skills in individual pursuits such as athletics, surfing or parkour, with team sports available each term for different competitions.
There is also the opportunity for particularly gifted students to develop expertise and discipline that will help them to pursue representative sporting commitments beyond school.
