Sport Education Structure
Every Friday, during period 5 and 6, each student in Year 7-10 is involved in the Sports & Activities Program (normal VCE classes will run during this time). Students will complete an online preference form selecting their top three choices for activities, initially at the beginning of Year 7 and then prior to the end of term for each subsequent term.
The aim is for students to receive their first choice although, depending on numbers, some activities may not be able to run. Students participate in the same activity for the entire term, and cannot repeat that sport or activity a second time during the school year.
Activities will be run both on and off campus at different community recreation facilities. Staff members not teaching a VCE class during this time slot are required to be involved in a supervision and facilitator role. The aim of the Sports & Activities Program is to promote participation, and the sessions will therefore be largely game play overseen by the students.
Students can select from the following sports and activities:
• Cricket (summer)
• Girls cricket (summer)
• Tennis (summer)
• Aquatic activities (summer)
• AFL (winter)
• Hockey (winter)
• Netball
• Basketball
• Softball
• Handball
• Badminton
• Table Tennis
• Martial Arts
• Croquet
• Running Club
• Lawn Bowls
• Aerobics (different classes)

Part 3: Uniform and Participation Policy
PE and Sport Uniform
Riverfront College Sport and Physical Education Uniform Rationale
Riverfront College’s curriculum encapsulates the Colleges values of:
• Achievement and Excellence
• Citizenship and Community
• Initiative and Commitment
• Responsibility and Leadership
The college aims to achieve these values through every aspect of the students’ learning. This includes the purpose for a dress code for Physical Education, sport and all physical activity excursions. The policies that a school adopts are important elements to a school environment that promote safe and engaging learning amongst students (Jones, Brener & McManus, 2003). A Physical Education policy addresses these elements, as well as eliminates social hierarchy related to clothing, poor hygiene and questions surrounding the appropriateness of the uniform (“Issues”, 2011).
A Physical Education policy that enforces student uniform instils organisation, discipline, unity and pride amongst students (“Issues”, 2011; Jones, Brener & McManus, 2003; Miller, 2014). As students enter the workforce, they will be required to wear a uniform that dictates the way they must dress. This may range from uniform guidelines requiring appropriate attire to a set uniform designed by the workplace. Therefore a uniform policy helps to prepare students for these obligations in their adult lives (“Issues”, 2001). It is argued that time allocated for Physical Education is already minimal, and that changing into a uniform cuts into this precious time (“Issues”, 2005). However, it is valuable for the students to learn to manage their time efficiently when changing uniform and to develop organisational skills through remembering to bring their uniform each week (Miller, 2014). Furthermore, Physical Education (PE) uniform is designed so that it is suitable for quality participation in physical activity. So, while changing may take away time from practical activity, the time spent participating in quality physical activity makes up for the time lost in the change room (“Issues”, 2011).
It has been discussed that Physical Education classes are time limited. As a result, students do not have time to shower upon completion of their lesson. Therefore it is hygienic for students to change out of their PE uniform as a result of sweat and body odour (“Issues”, 2011). Students expressed that they felt that they could work harder in their PE uniform, because they did not feel concerned about getting their clothes soiled or sweaty for their next class (“Issues”, 2011). However, a concern expressed amongst students, particularly females was that they felt uncomfortable changing into their uniforms in the change rooms (Fisette, 2010). With socially constructed ideal bodies being based on an individual’s body size and shape, the girls from Fisette’s (2010) study discussed that they were concerned about being watched and judged by other students when they changed into their PE uniform. However, they felt that this concern could be eliminated if a form of isolation and privacy were provided. They suggested installing barriers to change behind within the change rooms (Fisette, 2010). Riverfront College recognises these concerns, and has addressed them through redesigning the change room layout. The layout will include changing cubicles rather than an open changing space for all students.
As a student prepares for their next class, they transition their mindset from one subject to the next. By collecting their science textbook and putting away their math’s textbook, they are mentally preparing themselves for their next lesson. Similarly, having a PE uniform helps students transition their minds to prepare for physical activity (“Issues”, 2011). It has been highlighted that PE uniform can be expensive, and that by allowing the students’ to bring casual clothing to change into, this expense could be eliminated (“Issues”, 2005). However, as discussed by “Issues” (2011), PE uniform
CRICOS Provider No. 00103D Riverfront College PE Department – Prepared by C. Ackland, J. Brady, V. Burleigh, N. Giel & C. Maclean Page 23 of 84
shows professionalism, prevents improper dress, and reduces the chances of injury, as its design is appropriate for physical activity. Miller (2014) also argues that school designed PE uniform helps eliminate questions about what students should wear, label comparisons and social hierarchy. When students come to PE dressed in the school PE uniform, the teacher knows that they are appropriately dressed and ready for physical activity (“Issues”, 2011).
Riverfront College recognizes these elements discussed and enforces the uniform policy to promote:
• A sense of identity and pride
• Cohesion and good order in the College
• Allow all students to feel equal
• Prevent bullying and competition on the basis of clothing
• Ensure students’ appearance reflects the expectations of the Grovedale College community
• Enhance the profile and identity of the school and its students within the wider community
• Strengthen the spirit of community within Grovedale College
• Enhance individual student safety and group security
• Ensure all students are dressed safely and appropriately for Grovedale College activities
• Encourage students to develop pride in their appearance
• Prepare students for the expectations of workplaces
• Encourage students to present themselves appropriately for a particular role
(Fisette, 2010; Issues, 2005; Issues, 2011; Jones, Brener & McManus, 2003)

Policy and Consequences
Riverfront College Uniform and Punctuality Policy
In an effort to ensure that all students in Sport and Physical Education classes are appropriately attired, the following administrative policy has been adopted.
All students are required to have the correct uniform for all PE classes. Students are expected to change into their PE uniform prior to their PE and Sport classes. They are also expected to change out of their PE uniform prior to leaving for recess, lunch or end of day. Students must wear the approved uniform (as outlined in the student diary and on the college website) and are not permitted to participate in practical PE classes wearing regular school uniform. If students do not bring the appropriate uniform, the PE Department have spare uniforms that can be utilised. Alternatively, the PE Department have a range of non-participation worksheets that students will be expected to complete and submit. If students are unwell and cannot participate, we advise them to bring their sports gear so they can assist with umpiring or scoring. Injured students may be given an alternate program depending upon the injury sustained.
Uniform DemeritsThe demerit policy is a college policy that is implemented school-wide. For Sport and PE, students will be issued with the following demerits in accordance to the breach of uniform. These demerits will be written in the student diary each week in conjunction with a letter being sent home that the parent and student must sign and return.
• If students have a piece of uniform that is incorrect they will have one demerit written into their diary.
• If students forget their entire uniform they will you have two demerits written into their diary book.
• If students forget their uniform for a second time in the term they will receive two demerits and a lunchtime detention.
• If a student forgets their uniform for a third time then an automatic Friday detention will be given.

PunctualityAll classes begin on the bell. It is expected that all students will be changed and ready to begin classes at this time. Students are to use the gymnasium change rooms. There will be no time allocation for changing at the end of class and therefore students should ensure they are prompt in getting changed at the beginning of recess or lunch.
Riverfront College believes that PE uniform is essential for the following reasons:
• Eliminates the need to compete with others with regard to brand names, etc.
• Students feel a sense of pride and belonging when wearing a college PE uniform
• Ensures that inappropriate clothing (tank tops, short shorts, shirts and inappropriate logos) cannot ne worn.
• Weather conditions are unpredictable and students require a dry set of clothes for the remainder of the day
• Enhances the health and safety of our students
• Promotes a sense of inclusiveness, non-discrimination and equal opportunity
The Riverfront College PE uniform will enhance the college image both on campus and in the community, whilst adding to school spirit and cohesiveness.

The circus comes to townSeptember 4, 2013Page Tools
In the magical world of Silvers Circus, Gypsy Gomez swivels more than 50 hula-hoops while balancing on a giant mirror ball.Picture:Melanie Faith Dove
The travelling circus is doing it hard, but the show must go on, writes Anna Krien.
Running away to the circus these days simply means buying a zone three ticket. Since the drought has dried up people's pockets in country towns, circuses now are hammering in the pegs for the "big top" next to freeways, and gypsying through the urban sprawl.
"We miss the small towns," says Anna Gasser, of Silvers Circus, "but we have friends in country radio and television, and they say, 'Don't bother, Anna, no one can afford the circus here.' "
Circus life is not what it was. There is a security fence around Silvers' tent in Cranbourne - something Anton and Anna Gasser had vowed never to do when they started the circus in 1976. Surrounded by three generations of family, the Gassers make lattes with a noisy coffee machine inside their mobile home that boasts a spa, plasma screen TV and an Oakwood finish.
It is a far cry from the horse-drawn caravans the two grew up in. With circus lineage that can be traced back to 1843, Anton, 61, once wound through the Swiss Alps with lions, tigers and grizzly bears in tow.
In 1969, Anton and Anna who by then were married and a famous trapeze act in Switzerland, took a punt on Australia and arrived with only a trunk of costumes. "Any normal person would have given up," says Anton of their harsh beginnings, driving around Australia, across the Nullarbor, their cheap caravans filling up with dust. They would put up posters in stores and perform that afternoon in a half-filled tent, then move on to the next town.
When Tony, their eldest son, was six, he would scramble up a pole that Anton balanced on his head and do a handstand. Now 42, Tony does not remember being scared.
Some children remember their first BMX or CD player, but the Gassers all remember their first trapeze. Tony's daughter Cassandra started on the trapeze when she was four. "It was normal to us," she says.
Now 23, Cassandra's favourite memory of growing up in the circus was travelling at night curled up next to her dad and guessing where they were going to live the next day.
According to Anton and Anna, their second son, Dominik, 26, is a wild child, and makes even these circus parents nervous. He leaves broken hearts in all the towns, and does motorbike stunts that not even Anton would consider.
With his slick black hair and blue eyes, Dominik admits that it is tough sustaining relationships. "We're always on the move," he says. "Someone would have to commit to the whole circus."
(Brady, 2007)
CRICOS Provider No. 00103D Riverfront College PE Department – Prepared by C. Ackland, J. Brady, V. Burleigh, N. Giel & C. Maclean Page 32 of 84
He recalls teenagers looking wistfully at him and the other circus folk when they were growing up. "We'd make friends sometimes with kids, and they'd get permission from their parents to come along with the circus for a while," says Dominik.
Carlos Urban, 23, also a trapeze artist in Silvers, says: "Sometimes we play games after the shows." Oh, card games - a remnant of Toulouse-style old circus culture? "Nah x-box."
Dominik and Carlos joke around as they swing back and forth on the trapeze. Carlos is like a cat on the trapeze, stopping time as he springs across the big top with his Cheshire cat grin hanging in the air long after he has landed.
Tony and his wife used to perform the Wheel of Death, a giant spinning pendulum - " one of the most dangerous acts you could do, because you couldn't attach a safety device".
He does not remember the time he fell from 12 metres up. Anton watched helplessly, frozen in the wings.
Anna was returning from the shops when she saw people leaving before intermission, and an ambulance with its lights flashing.
Tony ruined his shoulder that day three years ago, and has not been in the ring since. Instead he sets up the tent, not only for Silvers, but also for gigs such as the Big Day Out. The Wheel of Death gathers dust in a storage shed alongside old magic illusion acts and broken carousels.
Today it's pouring, and the female performers, all dressed up, rush through the rain holding umbrellas and wearing dressing gowns over their costumes. Outside the big top they sell popcorn, fairy floss and stuff balloons with fluffy toys to blow up for children.
Anton's dancing horses stamp their hooves in the cold, and half-a-dozen doves bury their heads under their wings waiting for their cue to transform beneath the magician's handkerchief. There are two shows today, and another four for the rest of the week.
Each year Anton and Anna shop around the world for acts to bring back to Australia. From Iran they have the Persian Brothers - two former gymnasts who watched videos of circus acts from the west and made up their own routine balancing on knives and holding each up with practically a pinkie finger. From Argentina, Gypsy Gomez swivels more than 50 hula-hoops while balancing on a gigantic mirror ball, and her brother, Yibi, juggles and mixes the music for the show.
Anton is no longer the ringmaster of Silvers. "My accent is too thick," he says. Now Scott Davies, 41, a magician from the Gold Coast, hosts the show with skimpily clad assistants who disappear and appear in different boxes.
With bleached blond hair and an Aussie tan, Scott has the voice of a sports commentator. "May all your days be circus days," he booms at the end of each show.
Says Anna: "If you change your show and go with the times, people will keep coming to the circus."

Dear Isaac,
Ref: Capital Budget for Physical Education 2014With the opening of Riverfront College next year, we are proud to be able to offer a quality Health and Physical
Education curriculum.
Generating a superior store of equipment and resources will understandably take time and proper planning, however we
believe there to be some necessities required for the start of the year. These purchases are investment items that, if
appropriate in quality, will be used for years to come.
At Riverfront College, our Physical Education policy focus is “leaving students with lifelong physical activity habits by
providing a large range of sports and activities, in particular making links with community clubs and facilities”. We are
therefore writing to you to request funding or a portion of the equipment required to deliver our innovative and diverse
PE curriculum and Sport Program to all our students.
The new state-of-the-art gymnasium at Riverfront College boasts an indoor rock climbing and abseiling wall, allowing the
inclusion of such Adventure Sports into both the Year 9 PE curriculum and whole-school Sport Program. Apart from
providing students with an opportunity to experience a sport many would not normally have exposure to, rock climbing
and abseiling develops physical, mental, and emotional strength. AusVELSs Level 9 students are expected to
demonstrate proficiency in the execution of manipulative and movement skills during complex activities (Health and
Physical Education- Movement and physical activity). The ability to face a challenge and achieve a goal builds self-
efficacy and confidence which is transferrable to all aspects of life. Similarly, the trust put in peers will assist in
developing and consolidating cohort cohesiveness as at Level 9, students assume responsibility for conduct of aspects
of a sporting competition in which roles are shared (Health and Physical Education- Movement and physical activity).
We propose the purchase of the following:
20 x Vario Speed Abseiling Harness (one size fits all)= $1,399.00 (World of Sport Wholesalers, 2012)
TOTAL (ROCK CLIMBING)= $1,399.00
Similarly, the “Under the Big Top” unit provides Year 7 students the opportunity to participate in a gymnastic-based
program incorporating apparatus, manipulative objects and floor routines. Together, this allows AusVELs Level 7
students to progress towards demonstrating that they can proficiently perform complex movement and manipulative
skills (Health and Physical Education- Movement and physical activity). Higher-order creative thinking is developed
CRICOS Provider No. 00103D Riverfront College PE Department – Prepared by C. Ackland, J. Brady, V. Burleigh, N. Giel & C. Maclean Page 42 of 84
through the formation of group routines, as well as providing the opportunity for students to accept responsibility as a
team member and support other members to share information, explore the ideas of others, and work cooperatively to
achieve a shared purpose within a realistic timeframe (Interpersonal Development- Working in teams).
We propose the purchase of the following:
20 x Gymnastics Mats Acrolite (2000 x 1000 x 40mm) = $4,320.00 (Acromat, 2014)
TOTAL (UNDER THE BIG TOP)= $4,320.00
Finally, the purchase of high jump mats will allow students from Years 7-10 to work towards proficiently demonstrating
movement and manipulative skills within Athletics. With High Jump being an event in both the intra- and inter-school
Athletics carnivals, students will have the opportunity to practice prior to competition, therefore increasing self-efficacy
levels. These mats will also be able to be used as part of out “Under the Big Top” unit.
We propose the purchase of the following:
2 x Recommended Victoria Secondary and Primary Deluxe Aircell High Jump Mat (3.6m x 1.8m x 50cm) = $4,160.00
(RHSports, 2014)
TOTAL (ATHLETICS)= $4,160.00
TOTAL FUNDING SUBMISSION= $1,399.00 + $4,320.00 + $4,160.00= $9,825.00
We are committed to providing all students with a range of opportunities in which they can develop and foster a love of
physical activity while simultaneously meeting the demands of the new Australian Curriculum. In recognising the process
of building up quality resources throughout the school, we believe these purchases would provide a unique opportunity
for our students as well as the greater Riverton community.
Thank you for considering our request and I look forward to discussing possibilities with you further.
Yours sincerely,
Catherine MacLean
