Rise & Shine
Active, Healthy, Lifestyles
At Mounts Bay School we provide opportunities in sport, arts and leisure that make physical activity fun and healthy lifestyles a reality for everyone. Enjoyment can be found in individual pursuits or competitive teams and every student is nurtured to feel that success is a possibility.
We celebrate all achievements, from elite to amateur, experienced to beginner. Our Outdoor Education programme and extensive range of leadership, sports and arts qualifications are an outstanding feature of Mounts Bay as a Community Sports College.
Healthy Schools Award
The school has received this award for a number of years in recognition of its Personal and Social Education Programme. We ensure healthy attitudes to life are encouraged and provide intensive support at our Wellness Centre when students are in need of support or counselling.
Shine On
Some students are particularly talented in sport and they need to be supported to maximise their potential. County, Regional or National representatives are offered a mentoring programme to help combine training with school work.
Active Bodies, Active Minds
The breakfast club begins at 8.00am and fun fitness classes can be taken before school starts. At break and lunchtime we offer many opportunities including tennis, football, huff and puff, Yoga and circus skills to keep active bodies busy. After school, the choice of clubs is very wide, from Taiko drumming to surfing.
Girl Power
Over 80% of our female students take part in a health or sport club which is double the national average. We offer aerobics, kick-boxing and holistic therapies to name just a few indoor clubs. In addition we offer horse-riding, girls’ football and rugby and gig-rowing for more outdoor activities.
