Winter Sports Trials

Get involved in Sport at Selwyn!
I strongly encourage students to get involved in the trials for our winter sports teams next week. Playing sport has a huge number of benefits. Statistics show that students who are involved in sports while in high school are much more likely to experience academic success. Furthermore, playing sport enhances your physical well-being, body image and self esteem. It helps students learn to set goals and to develop strategic thinking and the self-discipline necessary to achieve them. It also teaches leadership and team-work skills and how to deal with success and disappointment. A final and very important reason for playing sport at school is that it is fun and you make good friends.
Over the last couple of years, Director of Sport Nicole Macquet and her team have built a strong department and our teams have become increasingly successful. So I urge all students to take advantage of what we offer and get involved!
