Cocurricular activities and clubs enrich the schooling experience for our students and allow them to pursue opportunities they might not access otherwise.

Equestrian
John Wollaston is extremely proud of its Equestrian Team. Our students represent John Wollaston at eventing competitions across Perth, showing their skills in the disciplines of dressage, cross country and show-jumping. This test of all-round horsemanship is where the strength of our riders comes to the fore. Their passion for the sport is such that they regularly give up their time on weekends and during school holidays to train and compete. A three-day competition held during the Term 1 school holidays consisting of competition in the disciplines of dressage, showjumping and showman (a combination of ridden and in-hand presentations), for students from Years 1 to 12, is the biggest Inter-School competition in the State, with around 300 riders, horses and families taking part.
FIRST LEGO LEAGUE
John Wollaston is extremely proud of its LEGO League Robotics Team. Our students have represented John Wollaston, and Australia, at National and International FIRST Lego League Championships.
We are incredibly proud of our Science program at John Wollaston. Our students have some wonderful opportunities to engage and learn within our excellent facilities, which are enhanced by industry-leading teaching staff and supported through a variety of curricular and cocurricular programs.
