Physical Education
Sporting Aims
The High School Ballynahinch, is a school with a long and successful sporting tradition and has always emphasised the importance of pupil involvement in a broad range of both team and individual sporting activity. We foster strong links with local sports clubs.
Physical education seeks to provide pupils with opportunities to:
- experience a wide range of sports activities as part of a curriculum programme;
- become involved in an extensive range of extra curricular sporting activities;
- develop sporting abilities through the provision of specialised coaching;
- participate in both team and individual sporting competitions at school, local and provincial levels;
- develop healthy lifestyles and physical well being;
- enjoy the pleasure which can result from involvement in successful sport;
- create an awareness of the benefits of teamwork.
