Sports - Auckland Girls Grammar School

Introducing Our Sports Department

Auckland Girls' Grammar School has an outstanding sporting reputation spread throughout a variety of individual and team sports. We aim to promote participation and provide the opportunity for all AGGS girls to gain a positive experience from sport. Through sport we encourage the development of discipline, commitment, positive attitudes, skill acquisition and taking responsibility as a contributing member of a team. All students are encouraged to participate in at least one sport throughout the school year.

Christo Peters is our Sports Director and Sushita Chand our Sports Co-ordinator. Throughout the year we are supported by an invaluable group of students, parents, coaches and teachers who collectively make sport at AGGS what it is today.

Netball is the biggest sport at AGGS, Mrs Rita Fatialofa-Patolo is the Teacher in Charge of Netball and Barbara Whenuaroa our Netball Co-ordinator.

Sports Policies

Transport to Sporting Events

Transport to and from specific seasonal and individual sporting events varies.  Each student will receive permission forms which will clearly outlines transport requirements for that sports season or event

Weekly Sports played AFTER school

For sports that take place after school (start and finish after 3:20pm) AGGS will provide transport to the venue.  AGGS does not provide transport back to school or to individual homes.  Parents/guardians are required to collect/arrange collection from the venue at the end of the game/match.  In extreme circumstances or games further afield, this situation may change on these occasions students will be dropped back at school at the end of the game/match.  Some examples include when the lacrosse team have to travel to a game in Whangaparaoa, the rugby team has to travel to Pukekohe or the soccer team has to travel to Waiheke Island.

Local Tournaments DURING the school day

For tournaments that start and finish during the school day transport will be provided to and from the venue.  Examples of these tournaments include the Netball Combined Points Tournament, ANC Pre-season and North Harbour Netball Tournaments, Auckland Volleyball Championships, as well as Swimming Zones Competitions.  Some events are completely user-pays/one-off events and in most cases students will be expected to make their own way to and from these one day events.  An example of such a trip is the All Schools Petanque Competition at Herne Bay.  Students will be fully briefed on arrangements
