Sports is an integral part of Chalo Trust School and we pride ourselves on being one of the finest private schools in Lusaka when it comes to sporting excellence. And it's not just talk, We are 2 time ISAZ Cross-country champions and we have come out 2nd at the Interschool athletics for 2 years in a row.

Studies around the world have shown that pupils who take part in extra curricular activities do better academically than those who do not, and it has been shown further that the best performing students in terms of academics are those who take part in both sporting and non sporting activities.

In keeping with Chalo Trust School’s mission, the sports programs at CTS provide a positive and inclusive atmosphere where participants will grow emotionally, intellectually and physically. Athletic programs are an extension of the classroom at Chalo; important characteristics and skills such as teamwork, sportsmanship, integrity, and resilience are ingrained through team building, practices or workouts, and games.

Students are able to learn skills that provide continued social development through sporting activity and access to a physically active lifestyle. They learn the correlation between physical activity and healthy living. Students are able to link their biology lessons with physical activing and begin to understand how the muscles, bones, heart and lungs function.

Chalo offers a number of different sporting activities that cater to the needs and interests of every child. Every term, we have one major sporting activity which corroborates with the ISAZ program, and then we have numerous other activities and games in other sporting disciplines. Participation in competitive sports adds an extra dimension to the educational experience at Chalo.You can see this when students go and compete at ISAZ events. You can see and feel the passion from the students and you feel their desire to win and the desire to be the best
