Physical Education in the Primary School
Holy Rosary encourages team spirit and school pride in their sports programme. We strive to foster physical fitness and well-being. Sport is an important part of the school’s 
all-encompassing and balanced education which develops body, soul and mind.
At Holy Rosary, not only do we embrace sport in the physical sense, but we combine it with mental strength and vitality. Every sport is linked to lessons taught through Life Orientation, helping girls to understand what it means to be truly healthy and fit.
In the Primary School the girls are encouraged to be involved in a variety of sports on different levels. Sport is compulsory from Grade 3 to Grade 7 and the girls may choose to participate at a competitive level (in a team) or on a social level.
