Sports at Wakatipu High School

There are many opportunities to get involved in sports through the school and often in partnership with many local clubs in the Wakatipu Basin. These clubs help to cater for secondary school sport by providing coaching, facilities and equipment. Our students and teams compete in a mix of Central Otago, Southland and Otago Secondary School Sport competitions as well as South Island and New Zealand tournaments. 

Supporting involvement with local sports clubs aligns with our commitment to the whole student experience. We believe that fostering athletic talent, alongside academic pursuits, develops well-rounded individuals who embody discipline, teamwork, leadership, and resilience – essential qualities for success in all areas of life.

Wakatipu High School offers a variety of sports throughout the year, but availability is seasonal. This means the sport you're interested in might not be offered during your time here.
