Headfort School

As well as the main games, children also play soccer, tennis, rounders and basketball. These games are played both in the afternoon and during evening Playtime. Soccer is often played by the very little ones as an introduction to team games. Tennis coaching is also offered. There are occasional matches in both tennis and basketball against other schools. There are tennis tournaments at the end of the summer term for both Seniors and Juniors. We also have our own squash court and outdoor heated swimming pool for summer use. Athletics occupies the children during May and June. We have a Sports Day, usually early in June, when children compete for athletics cups, Senior and Junior, in a variety of events. There are running races and jumps, high and long, as well as novelty events.
