Beyond the classroom / In Focus

Sport in Focus

Hurst's Senior Prep sports page lists hockey, rugby, netball, cricket and athletics, alongside swimming, tennis, water polo and other options. It states that swimming became a year-round sport following the opening of its new pool in September 2026.

This focus describes Senior Prep provision. Confirm the programme for your child's particular school stage; it is not a whole-school entitlement.

Beyond the classroom / In Focus

Extracurricular in Focus

Senior Prep activity options include musical ensembles and outdoor pursuits such as climbing, kayaking, sailing and orienteering. Equestrian opportunities include training and team events; the school says pupils representing its equestrian team need their own or a loaned horse or pony.

Activities change each term. Ask about transport, equipment, selection and any additional costs.
