Students have bleachers where they sit for roll call and instruction and a locker room for boys and another for girls, that are equipped with showers.

As a school preparing to be an IB school we introduce sports from around the world like cricket, hurling, rugby and Gaelic football. Students will also have the opportunity to develop cultural dances from around the world which will be performed by students and graded by the coach. This gives the students the opportunity to explore and learn about other cultures and their sporting activities. We also provide students the opportunity to participate in extramural sports teams such as girls and boys basketball, tennis, golf, and soccer. The athletes practice after school hours and play home and away games against others school teams. This competition develops great friendships, teamwork and a good work ethic for students.
