Sport

On Thursday we had two teams of Grade 6 students represent OOPS at the AFL Girls' Gala Day. The girls played with so much pride and passion, showing excellent sportsmanship and encouragement of one another throughout the entire day. Coming away with three match wins in total, we are so proud of the enthusiasm and positivity they brought to every game. Special thank you to coaches Beth and Pip for their support on the day.

 

 

Aus Bike Incursion. Bike Education program for schools.

We have been lucky enough to receive some funding to run an Aus bike incursion for our Year 5 and 6 students. The program will be run over 2 days with the Year 5s and 6s participating in two 1-hour sessions. 

 

Our first session will be on the 15th of August.  Students are required to bring a bike and helmet on the day.

 

Here is a little more about the program and what is involved with the 2 sessions.

 

A faster, fun program held over two x one hour sessions, the Immersion Program is ideally suited for class groups of up to 30 students.  With its shorter format, schools can run multiple sessions per day, providing more kids with the  AusBike experience!

The Immersion format involves both on and off bike activities, with  a focus on inclusion, fun games,  and skill acquisition!

Suitable for Years 3 to 6.

Day 1: Early in term • Skill acquisition • Game sense approach • On and off bike activities

Day 2: Towards end of term • Skill implementation  and confidence building • Road safety knowledge Session 4: Embedding of skills • Road safety knowledge • Game sense approach
