Students are expected to actively participate in all aspects of Dilworth life. This will include participation in organised sport to promote healthy and active lifestyles. Students will be able to choose from a range of sports and teams to suit their abilities, interests and physical attributes.
At the Senior Campus, the high-performance sport programme provides exciting opportunities for athletes to advance their skills and lays strong foundations for Dilworth’s future sporting leaders.
Designed for the school’s most promising Year 9 and 10 athletes, the focus of the two-term programme is currently rugby, basketball and football - but there’s scope to develop athletes excelling in other high-performance sports such as Olympic weightlifting, tennis, rugby league and touch.
Research shows that those who participate in sports do better in the classroom. Sport gives young men purpose, and if done well, instills characteristics and behaviours that help on their journey, well beyond the sports fields.”
