Sporting Schools - Cricket Australia program

All students across the school had the opportunity to participate in the Term 3 sporting schools program. Sessions took place at lunch times, recess and virtually with remote learning as well as a few sessions on-site for those who were at school.

We received $600 of new equipment for delivery the program. We thank Sport Australia for the opportunity to move more and allow the students to continue to learn with our new equipment.

Yulunga Traditional Indigenous Games

Cricket Australia with support from Sport Australia have recently launched new video resources on the Yulunga Traditional Indigenous Games. This is a first if it's kind from any sport (32 national sporting organisations). These videos have been created to support classroom teachers for active learning, PE programs and even for community sport delivery. The extra awesome thing about it is..... our school and students helped make this happen. Well done to everyone involved! 

All videos can be found via QR codes in the new Cricket Australia Primary HPE resource.

Term 4 Swimming Program

Students: Foundation (Prep) to Level 5 (Year 5)

Dates: Monday 8th November - Thursday 18th November 2021

Venue: Splash Aquatic Centre

What is the cost for swimming: This is to be confirmed. It's based on how many go swimming. Why? Then we understand how many buses we need and how many swim teachers we require. Cost will be to cover transport (buses).

What is covered in the costs? Education funding covering entry costs for student entry each day and for the swim teachers (1:10 ratio). 

Swimming is one of the most important life skills Physical Education can offer your child.

More information will come out soon.
