Sports Extra-Curricular Activities (ECA)
We run sports clubs every day, before school, during lunch and after school. These change every season. Our teams work hard, improving strength and skills, training for participation in local league and Westminster Sports Unit fixtures, as well as enjoying healthy activities with friends.
The schedule for Spring 2023-24 Sports ECA can be found here.
Greenhouse Sports
WA students ben
efit from specialised basketball and table tennis coaching and mentoring with our Greenhouse Sports coaches.
We are proud to have seen students develop through these dedicated programmes of training and mentoring, and experience individual success - with students being called up for the Basketball England Talent Programme selection camp in 2022, plus team success - with both our U14 Girls and U16 Boys teams winning the LBA Westminster league in 2022.
