Valentine Public School has enjoyed a fantastic term of orienteering under the new federal government Sporting Schools Program.
Newcastle members Jenny and Damien Enderby put 287 students through a 5-week program, and all the children loved it. They conducted a school championship on the last day, with many great results and future champions on hand.
Under the SSP, schools register with the Australian Sports Commission, then receive funding for three terms each year. We have been inundated with requests for orienteering from right across NSW.
If you would like to participate - as a school, as a coach or as a (sprint) mapper - please contact our Development Co-ordinator This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Mentoring is available.
For more information on what ONSW can offer, please see our Sporting Schools page. Our OK-GO program is fun, educational and great exercise. And it's BOSTES-accredited.
