Physical Education (PE) and sporting endeavour are a major part of life at Renaissance. All students from Reception to Grade 13 participate in two PE lessons per week and many also enthusiastically join our after-school sports coaching, team selection and interschool sports performances.
House sport also takes place during Physical Education lessons or at alternative times. For example, our House Athletics Carnival gives students an opportunity to represent their House group in a range of sports and physical activities. This adds to their sense of belonging, with house spirit being a prime motivational factor. All students love to win!
In addition to weekly PE lessons and regular inter-house competitions, students can represent the school at multiple sporting fixtures and events against other international schools within the city.
These games are played as part of the SISAC league season, in sports ranging from Basketball, Football to Badminton and Netball for students from U9 age through to U19 groups. Participating in these fixtures is not just for the elite teams. We seek to provide as wide an opportunity for students to wear the Lions’ team kit feeling a sense of pride and achievement in representing our school.
