Sports Coordinator and PE Teacher: Julie Germaine
Sport is an important element in our school culture. It helps develop fine and gross motor skills within children, not to mention keeping them fit and promoting an active and healthy lifestyle.
We are a Health Promoting School, and as part of instilling a healthy lifestyle, our students participate daily for 30 minutes of physical activity.
