At Claremont we truly value endeavour and participation just as much as achievement. We offer a wide and varied outdoor and active programme; all children are encouraged to work hard and participation at every level is valued.
With specialist staff and on-site facilities including a full-size sports hall, multiple pitches, tennis courts and a heated pool, weekly PE lessons enhance the children’s coordination, skills, stamina and teamwork whilst games lessons and regular fixtures allow the children to compete in a wide range of traditional sports, including:
Athletics, archery, badminton, basketball, cricket, cross country, fencing, fitness, football, golf, gymnastics, hockey, lacrosse, netball, rugby, swimming and tennis.
Weekly match training, international sports tours and competitive fixtures, with a strong emphasis on sportsmanship, give every child the opportunity to learn the value of persistence and how to conduct themselves with dignity, whether winning or losing. Regular house events and our traditional sports’ day provide additional competitive opportunities for all, whilst the victor and victrix ludorum events and inter- school tournaments to national level challenge our elite athletes.
