Very little in life teaches children about achieving personal best and working collaboratively towards an established goal like sport does.

At West Moreton Anglican College emphasis is placed on participation and building skills in an extensive range of sports.

More than 20 sporting activities are coached at the College and many are included as part of TAS - The Associated Schools sporting competition.

The College’s modern sporting facilities are extensive: there is a heated swimming pool, three sporting ovals, state of the art Cricket nets and turf and synthetic Cricket wickets there are also multi-court complexes for Tennis, Basketball, Netball and Volleyball.

Participation, individual excellence, endeavour and success in sport is acknowledged and rewarded at the College in recognition of the importance of sport in ensuring our students develop into balanced, healthy and happy individuals.
