Sport at GHS
GHS boasts 19 sporting codes and world-class facilities, including an indoor centre, a fully-equipped gym and a heated swimming pool.
After a rigorous selection process by the Department of Sport and Recreation, Pietermaritzburg Girls’ High School has been nominated as a Sport Focus School, namely in the disciplines of Hockey, Basketball and Netball. This initiative aims to partner with selected schools to provide top school-going sports men and women with a strong foundation to one day compete at National level and ultimately at the 2022 Durban Commonwealth Games. Eight KwaZulu-Natal schools were awarded this prestigious title, with GHS as the only all girls’ school selected.
