“The principle is competing against self. It’s about self-improvement, about being better than you were the day before”
Physical activity through sports and games is an essential ingredient of the personality development of every scholar. We believe that academics and sports are compatible and complimentary in realising the child’s full potential.
Activities on the playfield develop the qualities of teamwork, leadership, dedication, discipline, self-confidence and self-esteem. Sports equip scholars with skills that help shape their lifestyles and also strengthen them to face the challenges of an increasingly competitive World.
