Dear Maramba Primary School Community,
My name is Paul Wilson, and I am excited to introduce myself as the new Physical Education teacher at Maramba Primary School. I am looking forward to a fantastic year of learning, developing fitness, skills, encouraging teamwork & sportsmanship, and of course fun as we work to revamp our school's Sports and Physical Education program.
A big goal this year is to foster active participation and healthy competition by engaging in a range of sporting events. We plan to take part in both District and Division events of School Sport Victoria throughout the year, as well as special Gala Days for various individual sports and our own House sports. These events will provide wonderful opportunities for our students to showcase their skills, develop new ones, and build lasting memories.
To help you stay informed, I have included a schedule of Term 1 events. Your support in encouraging your children to get involved would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, we are seeking volunteer parent helpers to assist on event days. If you have an interest in or expertise in any particular sport, I would love to hear from you. Your involvement can greatly enrich the experience for our students.
Please note that all volunteers must hold a valid Working with Children Check.
Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or would like more information. I look forward to meeting many of you and working together to support our students' physical and personal growth.
Thank you for your support!
Kind regards,
Paul Wilson
Physical Education Teacher
