The PE Department encourage participation and competition between tutor groups and in doing so support the house system at Newlands through a number of Inter-house sporting events each year.  Our Sports Captains and Prefects develop their leadership skills further by assisting in the planning and running of these events throughout the year.

All pupils are encouraged to participate in at least one activity over the course of the year.

Tutor groups compete in the following sports and activities to earn points for their House: 

• Hockey
• Netball
• Tennis
• Swimming
• Athletics 
• Dance 
• Rounders

Points awarded at each Inter-house event go towards the houses’ totals for the year, with the winning house being awarded the House Cup.
