Beyond The Classroom
At Burgmann, we offer inclusive Co-curricular and interschool sports programs, providing students with numerous positive experiences. Our sports programs are built upon a set of core values that shape the sporting journey of our students. These values include:
- Opportunity for participation, fun and enjoyment
- Importance of sportsmanship and fair play
- Attainment of cohesive teamwork and game principles
- Growth of friendships, camaraderie, and sense of community
- Development of confidence, self-discipline, and self esteem
- Benefits of an active lifestyle and physical fitness
- Skill development and improvement of all players
- Acceptance of responsibility and promotion of student leadership
We take pride in our active participation in the Gungahlin/Canberra community and the wider Canberra Independent Schools community. We view sports as a medium for students to forge relationships not only with their peers but also with staff, parent volunteers, and the broader community. The experiences gained through sports at Burgmann help cultivate attitudes, values, and social skills that students can carry with them into adulthood.
