Thanks to a new double gymnasium and a strong athletics program, Nanaimo Christian School is building a whole new level of excitement. During the 2023-2024 school year we were able to send six teams to provincials! These teams included: Sr Boys' and Girls' Volleyball, Sr Girls' Basketball, Ski, Mountain Biking and Track & Field.

 

NCS Trail Blazers are not only learning new skills and building character through sports, they are also representing NCS in Nanaimo and across the province through competitive play and great sportsmanship.
