Wheelchair Roadshow
On Wednesday 6th - Friday 8th September, we will be hosting the bi-annual Wheelchair Roadshow. This involves:
A twenty-minute presentation on road safety, disability awareness or physical activity, and sport for specific groups as part of a PASS Class, by one of our presenters who lives with a disability, followed by a 40-minute game of Wheelchair Basketball or Wheelchair AFL, played by the students. This provides the students with a chance to experience something new, as well as gives them an idea of what it is like to be in a wheelchair.
The link to the Wheelchair Sports NSW/ACT Roadshow information is https://www.wsnsw.org.au/roadshows/school-roadshow-information/
The cost of this experience has been covered this year and therefore no money is required. All Stage 3, 4 and 5 students will attend in their class groups.
If you have any concerns, please contact me prior to the sessions, on 02 69422612 during school hours.
