Extensive studies prove that student involvement in school sport provides clear benefits in terms of physical fitness, health and wellbeing, cognitive development and social integration. St Luke's Anglican School offers an extensive range of social, competitive, individual, and team sports for your child to participate in.
Playing sports teaches lessons of life, such as teamwork, accountability, self-confidence, responsibility and self-discipline. Sport also offers students the opportunity to develop challenging critical thinking skills, and decision making strategies. Sport in our School environment, particularly through team activities, provides a social network for students based upon common interests outside the classroom. Sport enables another pathway for the fulfilment of personal potential and allows young people to take on leadership roles and responsibilities.
All students at St Luke’s Anglian School participate in regular sport lessons. However, beyond the curriculum, there are many further opportunities for students to develop their understanding of commitment and teamwork, and gain great pleasure and satisfaction from sport.
