Harvest Christian School

PRIMARY

SPORTS

Sport is an essential part of the holistic curriculum at Harvest and it’s crucial for each student’s emotional and physical development.

Every student is expected to participate in at least one summer and one winter sport from the range offered at Harvest. Supported by our dedicated coaches, every participant is spurred on to achieve their best in the sport of their choice. A full-time Primary School Sports Administrator facilitates and oversees all of the training, practices and matches. By combining the use of our own facilities with those of established clubs in the surrounding areas, we ensure that our students have the necessary resources available to enable them to succeed.
