The Play Program

The PLAYprogram is a fun lunchtime program run by trained student leaders. The student leaders have learned how to organise, and then run, safe and fun games for other students during the lunch breaks (2-3 times a week).

When students feel like doing something a little different during their lunch break, they head on over to the Australia map in the junior playground and join in the games. Our wonderful leaders meet every Monday at lunch to plan which games will be organised that week and who will be in charge of setting up and running the games.

We had some very keen year 4 PLAY leaders learn how to be a PLAY ambassador and without their enthusiasm and commitment, the PLAY program wouldn’t be possible. The PLAY program helps students develop social skills and friendships, and connects students across the different ages. The program has been running successfully now for the past three years in our school.

We look forward to our new Year 4 PLAY ambassadors being just as successful as those in previous years.
