At Fairfield Primary School, our Year 5 students participate in an Alternative Sports Program as part of the Physical Education curriculum – students explore sports that they may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience.

This innovative program commenced in 2013. A series of lessons are taught by a specialist coach – an expert in that field – and students are challenged to engage in new, exciting and demanding physical activities. Across the year, our students participate in three different sports.

Some of the sports that have been offered through this program include:

  • Fencing

  • Hip hop dance

  • Martial arts therapy

  • Roller skating

  • Table tennis

  • Taekwondo

  • Ultimate frisbee

  • Wheelchair basketball
