Physical activity builds self-confidence and fitness. The King David School’s Perceptual Motor Program encourages participation and develops motor skills in our junior students. In the Middle and Senior Schools, students have the opportunity to compete in Inter House competitions and in the Victorian Jewish Schools Sporting Association, the Balaclava District Primary Schools Sporting Association and the Eastern Independent Schools of Melbourne Sporting Association.

At King David, swimming, athletics, fencing, boxing, football, hockey, archery, skiing and surfing are just some of the sports on offer. The School boasts outstanding sports facilities, including soccer and basketball courts and a gymnasium at Southwick; a multi-purpose sporting ground and basketball court at Magid; and a sports hall, weight training facilities, indoor volleyball court and basket ball court at the Magid Institute.
