Interschool Sport

Interschool sport provides students with the opportunity to participate in a structured sport competition which is played between schools.

Outcomes:

The interschool sport program should enhance the physical activity component of the school's health and wellbeing curriculum program.
Schools implement a program that reflects the school and local community's needs and opportunities.
Each school sport district should develop a competition suitable to the district size, remoteness of member schools, staff resources and historical experience.

School Sport District Secretaries and committees
