SAASTA Update

New SAASTA team members

This year we have had an exciting start as we welcome many new students to our SAASTA team. Our team consists of students from all over the Peninsula including Minlaton District School, Ardrossan Area School, Kadina Memorial School, Moonta Area School and Central Yorke School. We also welcome Malcom Karpany who will be joining us every Tuesday as an SSO to support the students with their studies. Malcom brings expertise in football as he is an ex-AFL player. We look forward to the training sessions he will be running in the lead up to the Aboriginal Power Cup.

Practical Component

Our practical component has begun with some team building games, allowing students to get to know each other and start forming positive relationships. In SAASTA, it is vital that we work as a team and understand each other’s strengths.

Stage 2 course

This year the year 12 students are completing Stage 2 Health and Wellbeing which has a strong focus on fitness programming and hosting community events.

They will be choosing an area of focus to undertake a 4 week program. Stage 1 students are designing an art piece, which demonstrates the truth of our shared history.

This will be a visual representation which can then be transformed into an electronic copy for the Guernsey design used at the Aboriginal Power Cup.
