The Sports Committee is a small but dedicated group of parents who discuss ways to support the physical education and sporting opportunities at JHSS. This includes lunchtime sport, school events such as the Athletics Carnival, interschool sport and representative events. Along with our HPE teachers we identify equipment needs and other projects we can support through fundraising events. Why not join us for a meeting, or lend a hand at one of our famous sausage sizzles!

Our sustainability committee has been established to install, enhance and assist the school in a range of suitability practices including providing educational opportunities for our students and staff.

 

The objectives are as follows:
