Dainfern College

A world of education... an education for the world!

 
Sporting Activities
At Dainfern College Preparatory School we actively encourage all our students to participate fully in our extramural programme, and to choose activities from our wide selection on offer. We enter teams into all sporting leagues and are involved in traditional sports such as athletics, cricket, cross-country, football, golf, netball, softball, swimming and tennis.

In the Foundation Phase the emphasis is on participation and we encourage our students to engage in as many activities as possible. The aim is to develop the necessary skills and competencies required for the more formal sporting and cultural activities in the Senior Preparatory. From under-9 (Grade 3) our pupils compete competitively against other schools.

We also participate in InterHouse activities across the entire Preparatory School with the emphasis being on teamwork and maximum participation.

Staff members and a number of outside coaches are utilised in the extramural programme to help realise our goals and objectives in developing the mind, body and spirit of our students.

The Sports portfolio is the responsibility of Mr Murray Botha.

Please note that the practice schedules, fixture lists and any other additional information relating to each sport will be added below as they become available.
