  • Build a Positive Mental Attitude that’s optimistic, resilient and focused around a growth mindset.
  • Develop basketball skills and reflect on the personal qualities and employability skills built through sport.
  • Explore a wide range of careers and develops their skills of creativity, numeracy, communication, teamwork and organisation.

“I couldn’t believe how engaged they were with the challenge, they really gave it their all. And they did some amazing presentations as well. Because of that, the way it’s set up made them really engaged. But also it ticked off so many skills that they could try out.”

– Taner Adu, PE department, Oakland’s school
