DEDICATED TO ATHLETIC EXCELLENCE
THE VALUE OF TEAMWORK, THE JOY OF OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
Our schools are active places, where the youngest learn the value of play, and youth participate in a wide variety of sports. Physical literacy
– in which movement is built into classroom subjects and students are taught basic movement skills, such as throwing, running, kicking
and jumping — has enormous benefits for those pursuing school and community-based team and individual sports. Our three high schools
have a matching afternoon timetable, allowing interested students to take part in our premier sports academies, including ballet, baseball,
basketball, dance, fencing, field hockey, hockey, mechatronics robotics, outdoor connections, rugby, soccer and tennis.
