Friday Afternoon Cricket

Our Inaburra students have loved joining with Scots and Danebank each Friday making new friends and improving their cricket skills week by week!

National Ride2School Day

Our Junior School students joined more than 350,000 students from almost 900 schools around Australia who took part in this year’s National Ride2School Day.  We saw a big increase this year in the number of Inaburra students who chose to ride their bikes, scooters or walk to school with their parents, grandparents, friends and even dogs!  Thank you to our parents and caregivers who made the extra effort today to facilitate this and hopefully it will be the start of a new healthy habit!

Why Ride2School?

  • Bike riding is the easiest way to get healthy: It is recommended that children get 60 minutes of physical activity every day to maintain their health, and riding a bike to school is an easy and fun way to make sure they are hitting this target. It’s also a great way for parents to spend quality time with their children.
  • It improves physical activity rates: In the 1970’s, 80% of all school children rode or walked to school but now more than two-thirds go by car. Thanks to Ride2School that trend is reversing – schools that participate in the Ride2School Program report an average active travel rate of 54%.
  • It helps build confidence: Riding, walking, skating or scooting to school will make your students feel more self-sufficient, build resilience and helps them to develop an awareness of road safety and the environment around them.
  • Students perform better in class: Being active on the school journey has a much greater impact on student concentration than having breakfast before school. A Danish study has shown that children who walk or ride to school display improved concentration for 4 hours longer than those who are driven.
