Sports & The Arts

At Norfolk House School, sport plays a key role in our pupils’ development. With two afternoons a week dedicated to physical activity, our students benefit from expert instruction by specialist sports teachers. Many of these specialists also run additional after-school sports clubs, giving pupils the opportunity to further hone their skills.

Our sports programme extends beyond the school grounds, making use of excellent local facilities and offering students the chance to participate in a wide range of sports and activities. To explore more, click on the map below.

Opportunities

At Norfolk House School, we provide a dynamic and diverse range of sporting opportunities designed to nurture the physical development and wellbeing of our pupils from a young age.

Our younger pupils begin with engaging activities such as gymnastics, ball skills, and ice skating, followed by swimming and multi-skills sessions later in the year. Form 2 pupils continue to build their skills through football, ball skills, and ice skating, with swimming introduced as they progress.

In Junior Prep, students explore an even wider range of sports, including Capoeira, football, and swimming, followed by hockey, tennis, athletics, and bat and ball skills. Senior Prep pupils refine their abilities further, focusing on ball skills and swimming, with athletics and bat and ball sports introduced as the year progresses.

These opportunities ensure our pupils develop confidence, coordination, and a lifelong love for physical activity while enjoying a broad spectrum of sports.

Teams

At Norfolk House, we take great pride in our school sports teams, which compete in a range of disciplines including netball, football, tag rugby, rounders, cricket, cross country, and chess. Our teams engage in regular fixtures against other prep schools and participate in prestigious Independent Schools Association (ISA) tournaments. These experiences provide our pupils with valuable opportunities to challenge themselves, collaborate with peers, and showcase their skills, fostering a spirit of excellence and teamwork.
