Physical Education & Aquatics

The Physical Education department benefits from access to an Aquatics Centre, a Sports Hall, a Gymnastics Centre, a Dance Studio and a rooftop Football Pitch.

The Physical Education programme has been designed to support the development of a life-long love of physical activity in recognition that our understanding and appreciation of movement impacts upon health and happiness as well as achievement. Learning supports the development of agility, balance, coordination and cooperation.

The curriculum for Physical Education offers designated focus upon athletics, gymnastics, dance and games, and is split to allow for the regular teaching of aquatics.

Our Aquatics program is run in partnership with Eliteswim Academy and focuses primarily on building water confidence and stroke development. Through small group lessons, we ensure the students receive appropriately levelled tasks that develop their confidence in the water and swimming technique across the four main strokes. Students also engage in water safety, biathlon events, water polo and synchronised swimming.
