Sports Academy Incursion - Wheel Talk

Last week, the Sports Academy students were lucky enough to have a visit from Peter Ogunyemi. Peter works for Disability Sport & Recreation Victoria presenting the WheelTalk program. Peter is a former Paralympian power lifter and he spoke about his journey in life and the challenges he has had to overcome to achieve his goals. Peter spoke of the importance of sport and the opportunities it has given him in life. It is why he is so passionate about the WheelTalk program. WheelTalk is an interactive program that encourages students to think about diversity, acceptance and disability – with a primary focus on inclusion. During the session, the students were given a chance to play wheelchair basketball.
