Because all work and no play makes for a dull day
Although it is not compulsory, sport does play an important part in Hurtwood life and there is a full programme of sports and other activities every afternoon with a crowded fixture list of inter-school matches and tournaments.
It is clearly important to achieve the right balance between work and relaxation and Hurtwood provides a wide range of other activities so that there is something for everyone. As well as football, rugby, hockey, netball, cricket and basketball, typical afternoon activities include gym, climbing, mountain biking, aerobics, dance, audition preparation, golf, riding, polo, swimming, broadcasting from the school’s radio station, or advanced documentary film production in the Film Academy.
Hurtwood students also get out and about as often as possible, with visits to conferences and exhibitions, theatres, museums and galleries, sports tournaments, outdoor education weekends and subject-related, European excursions.
