Extra-Curricular Activities
Our School provides students with a host of opportunities above and beyond regular curriculum provision. Some of these include:
- OUR KIDS RIDE program: Ararat North Primary School has added a fourth 'R" to learning and it is RIDING! We're on a mission to teach every child at Ararat North PS and Ararat North Kinder how to ride a bike. Thanks to an Active School grant we were able to purchase a fleet of mountain bikes, with pedal conversion kits, and fully adjustable helmets. Students will receive training to learn to ride properly and will also have bikes available to ride during recess times. As part of this initiative, plans are underway to create a track around the oval to use the bikes on.
- SPORT: Students have the opportunity to participate in inter-school netball, football and athletics.
- STUDENT LEADERS: Our School has a highly active Student Leaders Group which meets regularly and organizes activities such as social activities for students, special theme days, fund-raising for the school and fund-raising for charities.
- CAMPS AND EXCURSIONS: Our students have multiple opportunities to attend a variety of excursions with the school. These range from day trips for younger children to full week camps for older students. The destinations for camps and excursions are decided on a year by year basis.
