Children enjoy sport everyday at Milbourne Lodge
Young people have much to gain from the challenge of sport. As well as improving their physical fitness and self-discipline, they learn how to work in a team and cope graciously with both victory and defeat.
Sport has a long and proud tradition at Milbourne Lodge and a daily games programme is a fundamental part of our school life.
Embracing outdoor adventures and sportsmanship
Every day the children enjoy a genuine hour of physical activity come rain or shine. We want our pupils to be well-rounded and tough, both willing and able to get stuck in. They love getting wet, muddy and really enjoy the outdoor life.
There are a wide range of sports on offer. The boys play Football in the Autumn Term, Rugby in the Spring Term, and Cricket, Swimming, Tennis and Athletics in the Summer Term. Girls play Netball and Hockey during the Autumn and Spring Terms, as well as Cricket, Athletics, Tennis and Swimming throughout the Summer Term. Milbourne also has its own heated open-air swimming pool, which is used throughout the summer and early autumn months. An all-weather surface facilitates sporting activities all year round.
