IN THIS SECTION

A true British international education values physical health, creative expression, and collaborative play just as highly as academic success. We encourage every student to discover new passions, challenge their physical boundaries, and express themselves creatively.

Physical Education & Sports

Physical activity is deeply woven into our weekly routine, mirroring Amsterdam's healthy, active lifestyle. All Senior School students participate in weekly, specialist-led Physical Education (PE) lessons.

Our PE Curriculum
In Key Stages 3 and 4, our PE programme aims to develop students' physical fitness, movement, motor coordination, and sports skills. Subjects covered include football, basketball, korfball, volleyball, badminton, hockey, and athletics. Through these sports, students learn leadership, mutual respect, teamwork, and fair play.
Extensive After-School Sports
Our extra-curricular sports programme provides outstanding opportunities to play both recreationally and competitively. Activities run daily after school, including karate, kayaking, dance, football, basketball, and rowing.
