GONUBIE PRIMARY SPORT

Gonubie Primary School has a rich sporting history.

We pride ourselves in our determination and embrace the ‘never give up’ philosophy which has served us very well over the years. A number of our past pupils have gone on to represent their province and even their country at senior at both junior and senior level.

We strive to offer our pupils a varied and diverse program catering to all ages and genders and we are constantly looking at adding new extra-murals to our program.

In addition to these codes offered by the school we also offer other, paid for, opportunities and these include karate, drama and dancing.
