Sport & Activities

We believe that sport provides an underpinning code of behaviour for every student to train with commitment, to play fairly, to embrace defeat graciously and to accept victory humbly.

TGS offers a wide range of co-curricular sport from Junior School through to Senior School. Students with outstanding skill/potential in one or more sports may be eligible to apply for a Sport Bursary. Learn more

Sport Program

Sport is offered at Townsville Grammar School in a number of ways.  Outside of the Physical Education curriculum, students have the opportunity to participate in Interhouse, Interschool and Club Sport competitions, as well as the Co-curricular Sport Program.
