Learning doesn’t just take place inside a classroom. In order to grow the mind and body, students need to engage in a range of co-curricular activities that help their personal development and growth.

Physical Education

Kids need to move!

Our integrated Physical Education Program aims to build life-long knowledge, skills and strategies so students are confident and happy engaging in sport and physical activity. Students participate in Physical Education each week for 60 minutes with their class and our specialist Physical Education Teacher. Prep and Junior Primary students engage in a variety of fundamental motor skill activities and minor games, Middle Primary Students students are introduced to game sense and the Senior Primary focus on leadership in sport and participate in weekly Inter School Sport competitions.

Outdoor Education

Experiencing the great outdoors is important to gain an:

  • Understanding of self
  • Understanding of others
  • Understanding of the world around us


The ÂÌñÒùÆÞ Primary Outdoor Education program offers a sequential development of both knowledge and skills in a range of activities. Primary students have the opportunity to develop an appreciation of, and care for the environment, and to learn skills and judgement necessary for safe personal recreation. While the emphasis is on having a positive experience outside the School grounds and forming positive relationships with peers and Staff, many new skills will be experienced that are essential at more senior levels of the College. Of course having lots of FUN is crucial to the success of the program!
