Boys and Sport

All boys and girls in boarding are encouraged to play a sport but the boys this year have made a great effort to take part in the a variety of school sports. The majority of boys are playing football and rugby while basketball and badminton are played by a few. 

      

The positive outcomes of playing a sport are well documented and it has been good to see many boys trying rugby for the first time. In their last rugby carnival they did not win a match. Nevertheless it was a good learning experience for all and the boys know what they have to do to beat good rugby teams. 

To gain fitness the boys are making good use of the gym after school and in the mornings many of them take part in the staff-led fitness training programme. There is no doubt that having a fit and healthy body will benefit them in other areas of their life at school.
