Other Sports
After looking at several schools for our son, Barnard Castle was the one school that stood out from the rest. The school has great family values. You are made to feel welcome at the school and as a parent you are kept informed on a regular basis with life at Barney.

Each term the School provides pupils with opportunities to try new sports that they may not have played before.
These include several run by professional coaches, for example fencing, taken by the UK fencing coach in our Sports Hall. Rock climbing and trampolining are also coached by professionals, as is self defence for girls.
We hold basketball matches, and number table tennis and fitness centre training amongst our weekly activities.
Our junior and senior eventers compete in the Harrogate Ladies College competition at the Great Yorkshire Showground.
Mr Oakley runs kayaking courses, and takes groups out on kayaking and watersports trips.
We are delighted to support pupils where we can in their sporting endeavours outside of School, and find ways of introducing new sports they wish to try.
