OUR CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
All students are strongly encouraged to take part in sport and cultural activities. There are opportunities for the pursuit of excellence in these activities as well as opportunities for fun and social interaction. Most sports codes and cultural groups hold trials or auditions and in some areas, places are limited. In some sports this is purely a safety system to ensure girls play in the correct grade
SPORTING LIFE
Participation in sport at WGC is outstanding and we are proud of both
the participation rates – over 60% of students play sport for the College –
and the success that we have at both a national and local level.
We offer an extensive range of sports:
• Athletics
• Badminton
• Basketball
• Cricket
• Cross-country

The availability of all codes is dependent on the support of our parent
and wider community. We try our best to place everyone in teams but
that is dependent on numbers and sometimes the ability of students
to play in a range of positions.
