Sport and Activities

We regard many of the activities we provide (such as Music, Sport and Drama) as an integral part of the curriculum and not only encourage but expect our girls and boys to participate. It is part of the Bow experience that our pupils try out new activities, discover hitherto undiscovered talents and grow rapidly in confidence as a result.

From hockey to judo, from playing the ocarina to fencing, from drama to painting -there is a wealth of opportunity for girls and boys to acquire new skills and hobbies and develop their existing ones.

Although Bow enjoys a deserved reputation for sport, it is only one of a wide range of activities on offer (both as part of the educational programme and as a voluntary after-school activity).

Testimonials

"Bow, Durham School has encouraged my son to reach his full potential in all areas of school life. He joined the School in the year below his chronological year and was quickly identified as needing to make the transition to join pupils in the year above. He is now flourishing and enjoying his time at Bow immensely - especially the sport! After-school care is terrific and most accommodating of last-minute requests."
