The
Sports Leadership Program is one of a number of leadership opportunities
provided to students in the upper years. Students from Years 3, 4, 5 and 6
elect their House and Vice Captains for the year at House meetings in Term
one. The sixteen elected students then participate in six, one-hour sessions
where they learn skills associated with organisation of games, safety
precautions, preparation and teamwork.
The
program supports students as leaders within the school community. In term two
the students organise lunchtime games for the junior classes. They also
present two student awards at the Friday assembly.
This
program assists the younger children at school to learn to play fairly and to
ask older students to help them out. It assists the sports leaders to become
fair and responsible students in our school community.
