In Week 2 of Term 2, we were fortunate to host an inspiring incursion focused on resilience, overcoming obstacles, and achieving goals. Greta Hayes connected with students, as part of Olympics Unleashed.
The students learnt from Greta Hayes’s Olympic journey how to build resilience, the importance of setting goals and how to find what you are passionate about.
Students heard firsthand from Greta Hayes about how they overcame challenges to compete in their chosen sport at the very highest level, and how some lessons they’ve learned in sport can help students to be the best they can be – whether that’s in school, at home, on the sporting field or with friends.
Hayes was part of the Australian squad at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics (held in 2021), where the team reached the quarterfinals. They also competed in the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, contributing to the team’s silver medal finish.
Thank you, Greta, for inspiring our Year 8 students to dream big and stay determined!
