Sport & PE

At Dederang Primary School we aim to provide ongoing opportunities for students to practise and apply the knowledge, understanding and skills in sport and games while maintaining and enhancing their own and others’ health and wellbeing.

In addition to our PE lessons, the school offers:

  • 5 days of Swimming Lessons for Foundation to Year 6 students at the Wodonga Sports and Leisure Centre. Emphasis is on stroke development, building water confidence and safety and survival.
  • 3 days of Cross Country Skiing – Year 3 – 6 students are strongly encouraged to participate in our 3 day ski program with our neighbouring school. Parents are able to assist if space allows on the bus. In addition to our ski program, we hold a whole school excursion to the snow every two years.
  • Inter School Sports Days – Year 3 – 6 students participate in cluster swimming and athletics sporting opportunities, allowing students the opportunities to progress to zone. We also offer students the opportunity to participate in Winter Sports Day, Cross Country Runs, and some team sports at various times. On occasions parents will be asked to arrange transport of their children to and from these sports activities.
  • Expert instruction and equipment from external providers.
