At Hui Xin campus, we feature state of the art sports and outside facilities including a running track, bicycle track, golf court, swimming pool, football field and climbing wall.
At all of Newton sports and outside play is a priority and exemplified by daily morning exercises with teachers on the running track, along with several periods of outside play throughout the day and weekly PE classes. A key part of the inclusion of rain clothes, boots and coats is to allow our students to be outside consistently, to move, run, play and enjoy the fresh air that rainy days often brings with them.
