A pivotal moment came in 1878 when, according to legend, the children played their first rugby game behind No. 1 South Parks Road. Seeking a club symbol, the children were inspired by Rev H. B. George, a School Governor, and the image of St George and the Dragon on gold sovereigns, and they chose a dragon.
Head: Emma Goldsmith
Co-Curricular: The Dragon has an enviable programme of over 100 co-curricular activities, guaranteeing something for everyone. From animation club to yoga, rock group to roller skating, skiing to surfing and gardening to coding, there are countless opportunities for children to develop their creative talents and build their confidence, physical health, and general wellbeing.
Sport: In sport we strive for excellence, but we don’t believe in ‘competition over all’. The value of sport isn’t just in the physical benefits or a healthy sense of competition, but in the confidence, team spirit, resilience and sense of pride generated by taking part.
Drama: Wherever you’re heading and whatever you aspire to, the performing arts can help you on your journey. Drama cultivates the curiosity and confidence required in any industry or office and, at the Dragon, the Arts are our superpower.
Art: We believe that every child should be included and celebrated for their unique and individual artistic talent.
Clubs: Thanks to our After-School Clubs, learning doesn’t stop at the end of the day, and neither does the fun.
