Early Years (Pelicans) Sport
In the Early Years, sport focuses on developing fundamental movement skills such as running, jumping, throwing, and catching, laying strong foundations for future physical activity. Through gymnastics, dance, athletics, tag rugby, and water-based play, children build coordination, confidence, and enjoyment of movement in a safe, supportive environment, while developing early teamwork and body awareness.

Students take part in sports such as football, gymnastics, swimming, tag rugby, baseball, korfball, badminton, dance, and adventure sports, developing coordination, agility, and resilience. Through structured lessons and team-based games, children learn fair play, cooperation, and a positive attitude towards physical activity.
