Woodvale Primary has a specialist physical education teacher. All children participate in skills lessons and sport sessions each week.  Students also participate in  swimming lessons each year. Years one to five attend the Craigie Leisure Centre and years six and seven have lessons at Mullaloo Beach. 

Throughout the year, senior classes participate in various carnivals and competitions against other schools.  In term 3, students are involved in a inter-faction athletics carnival. This is followed by an inter-school athletics carnival involving other schools in the district. The participation of parents as helpers, assistants, judges or coaches has always been welcomed. 

Woodvale Primary School has a number of representative teams in netball. These teams participate in a Saturday competition, organised and coached by parents.

Tennis is also promoted in the school with morning coaching sessions available through Robinson's Professional Tennis. Woodvale Primary has  been very successful in the State Primary Tennis championship (The Academy Plate), winning the boys competition in 1997 and 2002.
