At Vauxhall School teachers integrate physical education into their everyday programme. We also bring in a wide range of instructors to help provide sporting opportunities and experiences for our children. Over the last few years, we have had instructors teach the children skills in football, tennis, volleyball, squash, golf and gymnastics.
Vauxhall School competes in a number of within and interschool sports competitions including swimming, cross country and athletics.

* Games played on Wednesdays after school anytime from 3.45pm - 7pm
