We are passionate about continuously improving our sporting prowess and are very proud of what we have achieved from a pupil body that is still small in comparison to many of the schools we play against.
Grace College has achieved significant results both within the school league and the club leagues, within which we compete. Our pupils play to win and the skill level is continuously improving in terms of the main-stream school sports of Cricket, Hockey, Rugby, Basketball, Soccer, Swimming, Netball, Squash, Indoor Hockey, Cross Country and Tennis.
We are also fortunate to have pupils who have competed both locally and internationally in some of the non-traditional schools sports, including Mountain Biking, Equestrian and Golf which are recognised school sports. Additionally, at Grace College, we include sports such as; Motor Sport, Downhill Mountain Biking, Rock Climbing and Martial Arts for awards consideration.
We believe that healthy physical activity is an important part of every child’s development and continuously strive to instil a health conscious mindset within all our pupils.
