Get Involved in Extracurricular Activities

At WHS extracurricular activities form an important part of the educational experience of our students. We have an ambitious goal of having 100% of Year 9 and new students involved in some form of extracurricular activity each year. It helps our students to build connections and a sense of belonging.

Sports at Wakatipu High School

There are many opportunities to get involved in sports through the school and the wider community. The school prides itself on a high participation rate and an inclusive approach that enables students to grow holistically, connect with others, enhance wellbeing and have fun.

A number of sports are delivered at school, while several others are offered in conjunction with local clubs.
Our students compete in a range of competitions and tournaments locally, regionally and nationally and our unique location creates opportunities to compete against a number of touring national and international schools.
