As in the Senior School, we take sport seriously at Babington House Prep and compete with remarkable success at the highest levels.
We also realise that, for many pupils, sport is simply an enjoyable way to make friends and get fit. We are lucky to have some extensive playing fields on Elmstead Lane, which is a very short walk from the school, we also have a wonderful new sports hall, a climbing wall and newly constructed abseiling wall.
We have competitive squads in Netball, Hockey, Football, Rugby, Athletics, Cross Country, Rounders and Swimming (at the nearby Eric Liddell pool). We also enjoy Fencing, Rock Climbing, Trampolining and Tennis.
"Caring, nurturing - a small school with a big heart - it seeks to bring out the best in your child rather than blanket aims across the board for all children".
