Sports at Oakwood

Our Physical Education and Sports programme has an exciting mix to offer every child.
Games are played three times a week in the Upper School and sporting activities are featured daily in Pre-Prep from Reception upwards. These sessions are coached by members of staff with an expertise and enthusiasm for their sport or by specialist coaches.
Oakwood School has a very strong reputation for its sporting success. Our philosophy is that all children will be able to represent the school in some form whilst they are in Years 3 to 6. Representing the school can be a major motivation for some children and it is our intention to give them this experience.
The following sports are coached as part of the curriculum:
Hockey
Tennis
Football
Cricket
Rugby
Athletics
Netball
Rounders
Swimming
Our covered, heated swimming pool enables children to enjoy year-round weekly swimming.
An extensive programme of inter-school fixtures is arranged each term and we like to see as many parents in support as possible! We like to win, but our priorities are participation, enjoyment and teamwork.
Dance
Girls and Boys in Nursery have weekly ballet lessons. This helps the children with movement to music, posture, balance and confidence.
Girls in Kindergarten have dance once per week with our ballet teacher. We encourage all children to take part, as it is very good for their posture. From Reception, ballet takes place during lunchtime and it is optional. Ballet is offered throughout the school. RAD exams are entered when children are ready and prepared.
