Students will participate in a variety of Field (grass) based sports using the Sport Education in Physical Education Program (SEPEP) model. Sports will be based on the summer and winter seasons of sports that are played on an oval. As part of the student learning in the SEPEP model students will experience basic coaching, refereeing and administration of a round robin tournament for a variety of grass sports.

Summer: Soft Lacrosse, Ultimate Frisbee, Soft Ball & Cricket. Students will
be involved in the selection process of which sports will be played.
