Extracurricular activities available as an extension of the regular school program.
Dominican International School recognizes that sports activities are an integral and valuable part of a student’s experience at school. We believe that an effective and inclusive athletics program can support students’ learning by developing:
It further creates opportunities to strengthen the school – student – parent – community bond.
By applying Christian principles in all extra-curricular activities, students no longer act only as individuals, but assume the obligations of being a member of a team and representative of the school. We must remember as coaches, players, fans and parents, that people will judge our athletics program and Dominican International School (DIS) by the Christian values that we display at each extra-curricular function.
Sports day is held annually during the last week of school. It is a one day event wherein students compete within each school in a friendly way. The student council is tasked to organize this event.
DIS Taipei participates in the tournaments established by Taiwan International Schools Sports Association (TISSA). DIS Taipei is a full member of TISSA. DIS Wolves compete in three different major sport disciplines - basketball, football, softball and volleyball, while swimming is the only minor sport. These events are held in various venues depending on the assigned host-school for every school year.
