Sport plays a key role in life at St Andrew’s College, with students encouraged to take advantage of the many opportunities available to them.

Students compete at their ability level, with major sports having a few graded teams at each age group. St Andrew’s has an excellent reputation in competitive sports with our teams frequently challenging at the top Secondary School level in regional competitions and events.

We are proud of the pathway our Athlete Sport Development and Athlete Sport Performance Programmes provide for exceptionally talented students who are keen to play professional sport after they leave school.

Our vision is to foster ‘enrichment through sport’ and we strive offer the best sporting opportunities possible to our students.

Alongside the major sports, the College offers a wide variety of other sports including multisport, equestrian, polo, sailing, swimming, squash, table tennis, water polo, cross country and road race, snow sports, and squash.
