Netball The sports program aims to provide an environment in which every student gains a positive experience, is able to strive for excellence, and is encouraged to be actively involved in sporting activity throughout life.

We strive for excellence both in performance and attitude to cater for all students regardless of ability by providing access to first class coaching, opportunity & facilities.

The students participate in a Sporting Student Committee which enables an environment for discussion and a sense of ownership, in order to review, evaluate and modify developments within Perse Sport.
