Sport
Our Lady of Victories offers a range of sporting opportunities to our students. We conduct our own school carnivals in swimming, cross country and athletics. As part of the North Region, talented sports people are offered opportunities to progress as far as state level through our representative pathway.
Development officers from a variety sports visit our school to expose our students to sporting opportunities available in our community. These visits often combine with opportunities to compete in local competitions on the weekend or after school. The visits provide students with a 'taste' of a wide range of sports and the basic skills involved in the competition.
Our weekly PE program incorporates professional coaches in gymnastics and dance through Primarily Active and incorporate activities to promote fundamental movement skills and domain specific skills. We take great pride at Our Lady of Victories in the balanced physical education program that we offer. Our daily PE program teaches basic skills of throwing, catching, hitting, running, balance etc across the grade.
Our school is part of the Good for Kids framework that encourages the use of simple equipment and activities to keep students moving throughout the school day. Our spacious playground offers a huge oval for games like soccer and tag at lunch and there is play equipment in our shade area. Our students have a wide range of choices to keep active on the playground.
