Sports At HGS
Our Approach
At Habib Girls’ School, one of the best schools for holistic development, we firmly believe in the importance of sports and physical education as essential components of a well-rounded education. Engaging in team sports equips our students with vital 21st century skills like leadership, teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving, which are invaluable both in school and beyond. Physical education fosters pro-social abilities that contribute to personal and social development. At HGS, we encourage our students to strive for excellence, not only in national sports but also on the international stage, embodying the values of perseverance and success.
