Encouraging children to become physically active is a priority at Abbotsford School. Children receive specialist teaching in Physical Education each week. In addition to this lesson, we have a Sports Activator who works with each class once a fortnight. The Sports Activator also connects us with local sporting clubs and arranges additional coaching opportunities.

We offer a wide range of sporting opportunities. Children compete in the Otago triathlon, cross country, athletics, and swimming competitions. We also have a friendly competition with local schools in rugby, soccer, netball, and cricket.

Children have the opportunity to join the following teams which play in after school and weekend competitions:

• Flippa Ball
• Waterpolo
• Touch Rugby
• Futsal
• Volleyball
• Netball
• Miniball
• Hockey
• Tennis
• Cricket
