An ethos of an extended school day and week that benefits all learners across our school, marrying the energy of the school day with the breathing space afforded by Sport and Extended Learning Opportunities, and all in a unique central-Sun Valley setting that is well maintained and nurtured.

Often more than two afternoons each week are devoted to sport with learners who are able to choose from an eclectic range of options at a level to suit them, while earnest learning opportunities across the most diverse platform under the sun becomes a staple of classical SVPS life.

• Sport at Sun Valley is a massive part of day-to-day life within our school. A learner at SVPS takes part in at least one Summer and one Winter Sport. We encourage learners to partake in as many sports as they possibly can per term. This allows them to develop more holistically and they get to discover, through play, their chosen sporting passion.
• Movement and Play are the lifeblood of our learners’ experience at school, and this not only builds healthy children but enhances the learning in the classroom.
• Every day our learners venture out to the fields to complete the 1km Walk-it Circuit. This is a specially designed circuit to enhance fitness, build muscle and coordination and cross the mid-line to assist learning.
• In class, learners take part in several Movement activities. They perform Movement songs that are specifically designed to cross the Horizontal and Vertical Midlines. This “wakes up” the brain and aids learning in various subjects such as Literacy or Mathematics.
• They also perform daily Mind Moves, techniques developed by a friend of the School, Dr. Melodie De Jager. She specialises in enhancing learning through particular movements of the body. These also help our learners to feel safe and create a sense of belonging.
• We are a competitive Sporting school, where not only are our best teams selected to represent their respective age groups but all players are holistically developed under the guidance of our coaching staff.
