Welcome To Our School Sports Page
Hamilton West provides its students with the chance to play be involved in a wide range of physical activities and sports. Hamilton West School has a sports committee which oversees the operation of our sports clubs. This year we have two teachers who a members of the commitee - Steven Drury and Andrew Burr. Each year the sports committee publishes a calendar including our internal sporting events, the Hamilton West/South primary schools inter school exchanges (Year 5 & 6), the Waikato Full Primary events and our sports exchanges with other schools. The school relies heavily on parent / whanau support to coach and manage our teams so please consider helping us by taking a team - you don't have to be an expert. We have adopted a Flair Play approach to sport. All our coaches and athletes are required to sign Fair Play contracts. We believe in Fair Play and promote this in all our sport teams. |
