Sport at Hutt Valley High School

At Hutt Valley High School, sport provides an inclusive environment where every student can participate and excel. Our goal is to make involvement in sport a fun, challenging, and rewarding experience that creates lasting school memories.

We recognise participation is an essential part of both physical and personal development. Regular exercise fosters well-being, supports healthy bodies, and enhances intellectual performance.

A wide range of sports is offered to suit all levels of ability. Students can choose to participate socially or competitively, and we encourage everyone to get involved.

The Sports Office manages all major sporting codes, whole-school events, school exchanges, and representative tournaments. The Sports Office is located by the Main Gym.

HVHS Sports Levy

In addition to individual registration fees for each sport, students are required to pay an annual $35 Sports Levy. This levy contributes to the administrative costs of organising more than 25 sporting codes at our kura. The fee is charged only once per year, regardless of how many sports a student registers for. Please note that the levy is compulsory and non-refundable.
