Lucknow Primary School

Students participate in weekly sessions of Physical Education. They cover a range of topics over the year including athletics, basketball, soccer, cricket, tennis, football, gymnastics and dance. The school holds a cross country and athletics carnival for all grade Prep to 6 children. The grade 3 to 6 children also compete in a swimming carnival which gives individuals the opportunity to progress to the District, Division, Region and State level of competition.

Students attend Visual Arts sessions for an hour a week, for one semester each year. The children have the opportunity to explore a broad range of mediums and techniques during their time in the Visual Arts Studio, which has recently been equipped with a pottery kiln. The Visual Arts Facilitator sees the child as the artist and endeavours to support the children to develop their own creative ideas and potential, by introducing them to new techniques and mediums, supporting them through their problem solving processes and inspiring them with work of other artists.

Students participate in weekly classes of STEM for a semester. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. At Lucknow PS the focus is on Technology and encouraging students to build on and extend their ICT skills, moving them from technology consumers to creators. One such example of a creative application is having students plan, build, then code robots to make them move through a maze.
