LRCS+School+Plan

Healthy Active Schools Program In 2010 we were able to continue the implementation of our Healthy Active Schools Program. The coordinator made deliveries of fresh fruit platters to every Primary classroom several times a week and also assisted the Classroom Teachers in organising and implementing skills sessions in Physical Education. In addition to this the Program coordinator ran a variety of physical activities for the students of our school and some of these include Iki Fit and Net Set Go. The coordinator also supported students representing the school in Athletics, Swimming and regularly conducted Basketball skills sessions. A structured play program during recess and lunch was implemented and support staff were given a comprehensive program to follow to engage students in a range of physical activities.

Breakfast Club Lightning Ridge Central School has continued to operate a Breakfast Club. This club has been coordinated by Sophia (Tippy) Brown and staffed by volunteers from within the school, and from the community. Red Cross Australia provides financial support to the Breakfast Club. Many local businesses and individuals provide food to assist the Breakfast Club, which provides breakfast for around 40 students each school day.
