“Desire to Inspire” School Visits

“Desire to Inspire” is a fast-paced, interactive presentation / practical, that aims to inspire, motivate, and encourage more children to ‘get active’. Our hope is to visit your school and have contact with as many pupils as possible, on the benefits of an active lifestyle as well as the fun aspects of Little Athletics. The presentation / practical is intended for all students, not just those interested in the sport.

LANSW representatives are accomplished public speakers and specialise in talking/presenting to children of all ages. It is not unusual to present to 300+ students at a time, with a suitable PA system. Past evaluations received from schools have highlighted the positive educational benefits for both students and teachers.

Approximately 50,000 children in nearly 200 schools throughout NSW benefit from school visits each year!

The official School Visit period commences at the end of July each year and concludes in early September. However, visits outside these times are welcomed.
