Our teams have recently completed three weeks of school holiday programming in Kimberley communities rounding out a busy first quarter. The secret to the success of our teams, is getting the children engaged quickly, using the fun active games that make up the Game On! program. Adaptable to different numbers, age groups and skill levels - everyone is included and the volunteers join in too!
We’ll leave it to the communities we visit to explain what our programs mean to their kids.
"I really admire the way the Fair Game team interacts with the kids. They are so encouraging and supportive that even the most reluctant person ends up joining in and having a good time. The kids get to do a variety of activities and HAVE FUN!! It would be hard to better that"
Visitor Services Administrator, Wiluna"This is the best cooperation and teamwork I've ever seen out of these kids and the most fun I've ever seen them have."
Year 9 teacher, Mid West community"Engagement with the kids is awesome and the promotion of healthy eating and exercise is really at the forefront. The three visits we have had from Fair Game couldn't have been better."
Community Development Coordinator, Wiluna
"They bring a very professional and well organised team. Using well structured games and activities, either dry land or aquatic activities they gain the kids attention and get a large crowd engaged quickly."
Community Swimming Pool Manager, Fitzroy Crossing"The kids always enjoy their visit. They bring healthy eating lessons by supplying healthy meals which the kids help to prepare and cook. The team games teach the kids to work together and that they achieve more as a collective."
Swimming Pool Manager, Yandeyarra"I'm so happy to see him (12 year old student) smiling and running around with you. He is never engaged with anything, so to see him having fun is amazing."
