Sporting Activities

Sharing the sports facilities of our neighbours, St. Edward's College, Runnymede can provide access to the most modern sports equipment. The use of astroturf pitches and swimming pool for both normal lessons and extra-curricular activities, together with sports field facilities, give pupils the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of sporting activities, all under safe supervision and guidance.
