Welcome to the Sport for Life family at Our Lady of Perpetual Help School! We are excited to provide a fun and challenging year of activities for your child.
General Information
Should you need any information from the Sport For Life program, please go to the OLPH Sport For Life website at: https://sites.google.com/eics.ab.ca/s4l/
Each month, our students get the opportunity to try out a number of different activities that target a variety of skills and athletic professions. To keep up-to-date on what we’re doing each month, we recommend you bookmark our website. On the website, you will find the calendar for all upcoming activities, as well as permission forms for any upcoming field trips.
Curriculum
The Sport for Life curriculum includes Physical Literacy, Health, and Career and Technology Foundations. Students in the program study nutrition, personal development, self and team evaluation, sports injuries, sports leadership, sports psychology, sport-specific training, sports-related careers and more.
Clothing & Equipment
Students should come prepared each day with a pair of indoor shoes, athletic wear (weather appropriate), deodorant, and a water bottle. Equipment for each activity will typically be provided.
Students will receive Sport for Life clothing as well as a water bottle (these items are included in student’s SFL fees). Students will typically try on SFL clothing during the first week of school. The order should arrive for students in October. It is suggested that students keep a second bag (drawstrip, etc) to carry items to and from SFL activities.
Health Concerns/ Injuries
Finally, we would also ask you to please contact your child’s SFL teacher to let them know if there are any health concerns and/or injuries that should be brought to their attention.
We are looking forward to a great year with your child!
