Physical Education & Sport

Swimming

Swimming programs are offered to children from years Prep to six. All children are encouraged to attend these programs. Qualified instructors are employed and class sizes are limited. Parents meet the cost of their child's involvement in the program.

Interschool sport
All students in grades 5 & 6 participate in interschool sport. In terms 1 & 4 sport is held between 9.00 and 11.00 am to avoid the hottest time of the day. In terms 2 & 3 sport is held after lunch. Sports include netball, basketball, football, soccer, bat tennis, softball, Newcombe and rounders.

Athletics & Cross country
Students have the opportunity to participate in school, district, Regional and State Athletics Championships and Cross Country events. In recent years our school has achieved great success with several students reaching state level. In 2003 two boys made the national Schools Athletics Championships in Darwin. Interested children receive specialised coaching weekly by trained parents which contributes significantly to successful outcomes achieved.
