Sport

Sport is an integral part of school life at Habs and we encourage students to engage in a variety of sport and physical activities. We offer all students the opportunity to represent the school at any level and they have the chance to get involved in internal franchise competitions, Inter House events, social activities or competitive fixtures with other local schools. We also encourage a healthy relationship with sport and exercise, helping to develop an understanding of how exercise can positively affect health and wellbeing as well as cultivate team spirit, positive relationships and pride in both individual and team achievements.

Participation rates are exceptionally high with students embracing the opportunity to get involved with such a broad and diverse sporting programme.

As part of school life at Habs, we join the Boys’ School on their weekly 3.5km community run. This is HabsDash! It takes place every Tuesday lunchtime and the route takes students around our school grounds. The run is open to all members of the Habs community – students and staff, both at Habs Girls and at Habs Boys’ School. To take part, students need to go to the Medburn Centre at 12.40pm on Tuesdays and get changed – the run starts at 12.50pm.

The school produces results sheets each week so students can track their progress and work towards running a half marathon, a marathon or even further!
