Sport, Music & Cultural Activities

Sport

Sport at Westering is an integral part of our school programme. We strongly believe that sport teaches our children many invaluable skills and helps to build relationships, which effect all areas of their school lives.
We pride ourselves in the number of teams we have, and the level at which our children excel.

Each child is expected to take part in at least one Summer and one Winter sport. They may choose from the following:

• Athletics

• Cricket

• Girls Hockey

• Boys Hockey (Only Grade 6&7)

• Rugby

• Netball

• Coding and Robotics

• Aerobics

• Tennis

• Westering Walkers

Music

The music department is one of the most exciting areas of our school. There are many additions being made each year to expose our children to the joy and discipline of music, and to build a base that can lead our music department into a vibrant and indispensable component of our school.

We offer individual lessons in the following instruments:

  • Piano
  • Keyboard
  • Trumpet
  • Trombone
  • Euphonium
  • Tuned percussion
  • Drums

In addition to individual lessons, our pupils can also participate in the following groups:

  • Percussion Ensemble (Mrs Bruggeman)

  • Foundation Phase Choir – Grade 1 – 3 (led by Mrs Bruggeman)

  • senior choir – Grade 4 – 7 (Mrs Bruggeman and Mr Allison)

Performances

Our music pupils are encouraged to perform on a regular basis in assemblies and prize-giving ceremonies. Our senior choir also performs at the Voca Volante Festival, which occurs annually at the Feather Market Hall.

Cultural Activities

Pupils participate in various cultural activities during the academic day and have the option to participate in a number of cultural clubs in the afternoon. 

Some of the choices include:

• Chess Club

• Art Club

• Joining Hands Club (Community service club)
