Sporting Activities
The SportsDepartment believes that by instilling a passion for sport in our students from an early age, the skills and values acquired will be taken on their journey throughout their education and into adulthood, thus becoming an integral part of their holistic education.
Participation in a range of sporting activities develops each individual, as well as growing the sense of unity, teamwork and cohesion. Sport and healthy living should underpin student’s life and our aim at The Bridge International School is for students to live their life with a strong social conscience.
We aim to give our students the necessary tools and skills to achieve excellence in all they strive to achieve. Physical fitness, discipline and success can contribute towards academic success, and we expect our students to take pride in their performance in the classroom as well as on the court/pitch. While we aim to build competitive, winning teams, our primary mission is to promote the value of school spirit and fair play.

- To promote and encourage a strong social conscience among all our community members.
- To maintain open and effective communication between the public, the PE department staff, students and parents and so be aware of attitudes, opinions and ideas.

Participation in games and sports program is not only a fun and rewarding experience, but also a privilege and a valuable educational experience.
