PE and Sport is something we excel at here at St George’s. Every session is accessible, inclusive and fun, meaning every child can learn and improve on their physical literacy.
Our excellent Sports department is adept at challenging those with sporting prowess, meaning a high proportion of pupils progress onto a pathway that leads them to representing the Island in sporting tournaments.

School Teams and Tournaments
Pupils take part in many tournaments throughout their time at St George’s, particularly from Form III upwards where the children have many opportunities to compete as individuals or as part of mixed or single-sex teams. All pupils take part in House Competitions and have the opportunity to represent the School.
Sports competitions include Island-based football, rugby, hockey, cricket and netball tournaments, and athletics competitions. Our school teams take part in an annual football and netball tour to the UK.
We run an extensive list of internally and externally-run sports clubs before and after school for pupils of all ages and abilities, including football, surfing, padel tennis, cricket, yoga and kickboxing.
