Premier's Sporting Challenge

 

Our school has registered to participate in the NSW Premier's Sporting Challenge.

 

The purpose of the Challenge is to encourage students to participate in sport, games and physical activity and to have more students, more active, more often!

 

This term students will be monitoring physical activity they do during class time, at recess and lunch as well as during sport.  What they do outside school  hours will also count towards the Challenge award.

 

Each students will be issued with a Challenge log bookto record their physical activity.

 

Your support in encouraging your child to be physically active before and after school as well as on weekends will encourage him/her to develop healthy lifestyle habits.  You may like to join us in this venture by organising family activities such as walking, swimming and cycling.

 

Physical activity is valued for its physical, social and emotional benefits.  It also helps young people to develop communication skills, confidence and resilience while having fun with family and friends.
