Physical Education classes are provided for all years, and cater for varying abilities. Students develop a wide range of skills both physical and cognitive including but not limited to tactics and strategy, analysis, teamwork, anatomy, physiology and practical performance.
A comprehensive lunchtime and after-school extra-curricular programme offers opportunity for both formal competitive involvement and casual participation in a variety of activities.
Information on all Physical Education opportunities available at Cornwallis is available from this site.
