Sport, Lifestyle & Recreation FAQ's
No. SLR is not a VET subject. You do receive a certificate of completion for the Crossfit Fundamentals course in Year 12, that is run as part of our Resistance Training topic.
We have an amazing practical component and we often travel off-site to varying venues. Venues include local gyms and fitness facilities, surfing and stand up paddleboarding, as well as golf, lawn bowls and Springloaded- the list is endless!
No. A change of clothes (black shorts preferably) and joggers will be all you need! Black SAPSS shorts are a good option ($19.50 at the St Agnes’ Parish Uniform Store).
If you are interested in completing further studies in health and physical education, you might wish to explore Business Services, Tourism or Human Services.
