Sporting and fitness

Horse riding

The Riding Club is for pupils in years 1 and 2 . We go to Dolgoed Riding centre in St Asaph every Monday after school and the children learn how to control the pony and manage a sustained rising trot. A minibus takes them each way, although parents are welcome to come and watch. There is a maximum of 8 pupils who can be accommodated – we are always fully subscribed.

Judo

External instuctors come to the school to run judo classes, under the supervision of the PE department.

Squad training

Extra-curricular sports training for squads playing tag and contact rugby, football, netball, hockey, swimming and skiing. Prep pupils are encouraged to take part in fixtures and competitions that take place throughout the school year.

Sailing

Prep school children in years 3-6 are taken out on the water on Tuesday evenings, accompanied by trained members of staff and experienced sailors from the senior school.

Skiing

Prep school skiiers have enjoyed great success recently, competing and winning medals at regional, national and international competitions. Ski Club runs on a Thursday evening September to Easter – and we do have a very busy club, averaging 80 pupils a week.
