Welcome to TuksSport High School’s Residential Programme
We pride ourselves in offering a structured and orderly environment which will allow you, the learner athlete, to focus on developing the champion within you.
Our residential programme is one of the many things that sets our school and sports programmes apart from other schools. We veer off the beaten track to accommodate the rigorous training schedules as well as the academic demands of the school, by relying on your self-discipline and internal motivation to excel.
Provision is made for, amongst other things, access to early morning and late afternoon training sessions, energy controlled meals as determined by a sports nutritionist, and supervised study sessions.
There are no bells or alarms to wake you up for early training sessions – being on time for training and for school is part of the internal discipline we expect of our learners. The same discipline is required when it comes to food choices. Disciplined athletes choose healthy, nutritious food and have the strength to say no to food and snacks that may impact on their performance.
Discipline is not a multiple-choice option – we expect you to have the same discipline in the study session and in the classroom than you have on the sports field, the track or the pool.
We encourage independence and self-reliance in our learners – make the most of the freedom given to you in this programme – it comes with responsibility but you will reap the rewards.
Integrity, honesty and transparency underpin all we do and stand for. We appreciate talent but respect Commitment, determination and courage. We admire confidence, yet we encourage humility.
We hope you will make the most of every opportunity given to you in this remarkable system, and that you will be triumphant in all you do. You are in good hands
